The Tomorrow People's Peyton List Lands Lead Role in CW's 'Frequency' Pilot

Peyton List is set to star in the upcoming CW drama Frequency!

The 29-year-old actress, best known for her roles on The Tomorrow People and The Flash, will star opposite Riley Smith in the show based on Toby Emmerich‘s sci-fi thriller, according to Deadline.

The series will be written by Supernatural showrunner Jeremy Carver and “centers on Raimy (List), a female police detective in 2016 who discovers that she is able to speak via a ham radio with her estranged father, Frank Sullivan (Smith), also a detective, who died in 1996.”

“Seen in 1996, Frank Sullivan has been undercover for two years. The strain of the assignment effectively destroyed his marriage and separated him from his little girl, Raimy, but he gets a new chance at building a relationship with her when she begins communicating with him from 20 years in the future. The two forge a new relationship while working together on an unresolved murder case, but unintended consequences of the ‘butterfly effect’ wreak havoc in the present day.”

Congrats, Peyton!
