Joe Otterson TV Reporter Carla Gugino has been cast in a series regular role in the upcoming HBO Max series “The Girls on the Bus,” Variety has learned.
Gugino is the latest addition to the cast, joining previously announced cast members like Melissa Benoist, Natasha Behnam, Christina Elmore, and Brandon Scott. “The Girls on the Bus” is inspired by a chapter in Amy Chozick’s book “Chasing Hillary.” It is described as a comedic character-driven drama that chronicles four female journalists who follow every move of a parade of flawed presidential candidates, while finding friendship, love, and scandal along the way.
Gugino will play Grace Gordon Greene, a veteran reporter and friend and mentor to Sadie (Benoist). Grace is journalistic royalty, known as Queen of the Scoop.
Gugino’s recent TV credits include both “The Haunting of Bly Manor” and “The Haunting of Hill House” at Netflix, while she will also appear in the upcoming series “The Fall of the House of Usher.” All three shows hail from Mike Flanagan.
