Actress Cynthia Addai-Robinson Cast In Upcoming USA Series ‘Shooter’

Cynthia Addai-Robinson, of Spartacus and Arrow fame, has joined a sprawling cast for the upcoming USA Network procedural ‘Shooter’.
The British born American actress has been tapped to play the character of Nadine Memphis, an FBI agent in the John Hlavin penned script. She replaces Emily Rios, who played Memphis in the pilot that got the show a series order.
The series would be based on Stephen Hunter’s novel Point Of Impact and the 2007 Paramount film of the same name, which starred Mark Wahlberg. Wahlberg would executive produce the series as well.
Addai-Robinson was born to an American father and a Ghanaian mother in London, 31 years ago. She is most known for her roles as Naevia in Spartacus and Amanda Walter in Arrow.
Deadline reports.

Addai-Robinson will play FBI agent Nadine Memphis. Nadine has a strong intuition and dogged determination which has made her a rising star in the Bureau, but her headstrong personality has also landed her in trouble in the past. As the arresting officer of a would-be-assassin, she may have set her career back on the fast track, but her gut tells her there’s more to this case. Not realizing the depth of the conspiracy, she unwittingly puts both her investigation and her life in jeopardy.
Omar Epps co-stars as Isaac Johnson, an ex-Marine and former commander officer, and Shantel VanSanten as Julie Swagger, the wife and best friend of Bob Lee.
Wahlberg and Hlavin executive produce with Stephen Levinson and Lorenzo di Bonaventura. Phillippe serves as producer. Simon Cellan Jones directed the pilot.
