She’s done great work in ‘Man on Fire’, ‘Phone Booth’ and the indie film ‘High Art’, but has only been seen in one American made series until now. Radha Mitchell will pilot a new drama on A&E titled ‘The Quickening’ which will begin filming in Los Angeles in November.
The Australian born performer played a part in the NBC miniseries ’Uprising’ on NBC in 2001 and is in the big screen movie ‘Surrogates’ now playing in theaters and getting second billing behind Bruce Willis.
This new series gets A&E back in to scripted series programming after cancelling ‘The Cleaner’ and ‘The Beast’ recently. Mitchell will play a homicide detective suffering from a bipolar disorder and re-assigned to desk duty because of her condition.
