Sarah Shahi will play the legendary teen sleuth Nancy Drew from the iconic mystery series
Shahi is the sort of actress producers feel they must have to give a show a chance: viewers want to see her in their living rooms at night. Shahi expertly mixes glamorous looks and a devastating smile with tough credibility as a cop. Her eyes communicate intelligence, experience and wisdom. And she is very much the grown-up in the room, which is why she’s perfect for the new Nancy Drew. The show, on CBS, will remake the teenage legend as a thirtysomething adult delving into mysterious happenings. Drew is said to have influenced women from Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor to Hillary Clinton to international labor figure Joan Barrett.
