Casting News Round Up Featuring - Scandal and 666 Park Avenue
Tessa Thompson Joins Vanessa Williams In ABC Supernatural Drama '666 Park Avenue'

Tessa Thompson has signed up for a recurring role on ABC's new supernatural drama, 666 Park Avenue, which stars Vanessa Williams and Terry O'Quinn, based on the Alloy book series by Gabriella Pierce.
The project revolves around a "young couple (Rachael Taylor, Dave Annable) who accept an offer to manage one of the most historic apartment buildings in New York City."
The tennants in the building begin to experience dangerous and mysteriously supernatural occurrences.
Williams plays the "cold and sophisticated wife" of the building owner, played by O'Quinn.
Thompson will play a character named Laurel Harris, described as "a media consultant with an inside track on New York politics. She entices Henry with her contacts, offering to open doors for him, and her presence complicates his relationship with his girlfriend."
Henry and his girlfriend are a young couple (played by Dave Annable & Rachael Taylor) who sign up to manage the building.

Elise Neal To Appear On 'Scandal' As An 'Attorney w/ Secrets'

Elise Neal shared the above photo on Instagram a couple of weeks ago, with the caption:
Me and the amazing @kerrywashington a chill on set moment.
Does this mean she'll be appearing in season 2 of Shonda Rhimes' Scandal, which stars Kerry Washington?
No official announcements yet, however, I did some further digging, and found another photo that she posted earlier (below) with a caption that reads:
Me as an attorney. (With secrets) #Scandal
And then finally, the day after, another tweet:
Special thanks to everyone on #Scandal this week! @kerrywashington @ABC and the gang #goodtimes
Like I said, I haven't seen an official announcement of her casting, but based on the above, I think it's safe to say that she'll be appearing on Scandal next season, which begins next month, playing "an attorney with secrets."
As for whether it's a one-episode role, or something recurring, we don't know yet. But I'm sure we'll find out soon enough...
Up next for Ms Neal, Russ Parr's The Under Shepherd, which should be out some time soon.

Was ep 2 any better?
They kill the pedo and the comtessa,
Tessa Thompson's character is so useless
TY Jesus!
she is actually in the miniserie "Copper"
i will say they have amazing chemistry but she can seriously do much better. i hope their romance is minor this upcoming season (i won't hold my breath though)
