The project is set in a dangerous world where a beautiful and tough princess discovers an unlikely connection with a mysterious beast.

Written and exec produced by Jon Steinberg, LeBlanc joins a cast that includes Chris Egan, Darius Campbell, Ruth Bradley and Meegan Warner.

LeBlanc starred on ABC's short-lived Defying Gravity. She's repped by Greene & Associates Talent Agency and OAZ.
