The Emmy-nominated (transgender) actress (Netflix’s Orange Is the New Black) is set to co-star in Doubt, a new legal drama that’s being mounted at CBS. As a full-fledged regular.
The show will center on a to-be-cast smart and chic and successful boutique-firm lawyer who becomes romantically entangled with a client who may or may not be guilty of a brutal crime.
While hers won’t be the first trans character on a network TV show (Candis Cayne had a well-received recurring part on Dirty Sexy Money back in 2007), Cox’s character – an Ivy League-educated attorney who is as fiercely competitive as she is compassionate – was specifically conceived and created for a transgender actress.
Good for her!
