'Nikita' Actress Tiffany Hines Cast in ABC's 'Americana' Pilot
She will play a medical student in the Anthony LaPaglia and Ashley Greene-led project.
Hours after Twilight star Ashley Greene landed a role on ABC drama pilot Americana, Nikita actress Tiffany Hines has joined the cast, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
Americana centers on a legendary fashion designer Robert Soulter (Anthony LaPaglia) in the soapy drama revolving around his family business.
Hines, who played Jaden during the first season of the CW's Nikita, will take on the role of Shane Kelly, described as a gorgeous medical student and Alice's (Greene) best friend. Shane is recruited by Alice to model in a fashion show and discovers that her life is about to change -- and not necessarily for the better.
