What/If: Daniella Pineda joins Renee Zellweger anthology series

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Jurassic World actress Daniella Pineda has been cast in a series regular role for Netflix’s upcoming social thriller anthology What / If. She joins a cast that includes Academy Award winner Renee Zellweger, plus Jane Levy and Blake Jenner.

Created by Mike Kelley, known for creating the hit ABC mystery drama Revenge, the series will explore the effects of acceptable people committing deplorable acts, with Zellweger (Bridget Jones’s Baby) starring in the lead role of Anne, whose story has yet to be discussed. The streaming service has ordered a ten-episode season of 60-minute episodes executive produced by Kelley, Melissa Loy (Revenge), Alex Gartner and Charles Roven (Season of the Witch), Robert Zemeckis and Jack Rapke (Flight).

Kelley and the streaming service have a multi-season plan for the series, which will take on an anthology format as each new season will tackle a different morality tale inspired by culturally relevant events and how the power of one decision can change lives so drastically.
