Aussie Anna Torv, the former Fringe star is joining Ryan Murphy’s sex-and-relationships pilot “Open” as the lesbian lover of Jennifer Jason Leigh.
The provocative script, which was penned for HBO by Murphy and Dexter co-executive producer Lauren Gussis, revolves around five characters. Open is described as a multi-character exploration of the complex, ever-evolving landscape of sexuality, monogamy and intimacy in relationships.
Torv will play Windsor, a yoga instructor in a longterm relationship with Holly (Jennifer Jason Leigh), but upon meeting Grace (actress unknown) feels an instant connection. They join the previously cast Scott Speedman (Last Resort) and Wes Bentley (The Hunger Games).
