The Traffic-esque thriller centers on three families whose lives are torn apart when a stranded female soldier, a disillusioned corporate attorney and a disrespected political activist are pulled into the same shocking international military conspiracy.

Pineda will play Molly, a reporter for Time magazine who becomes a love interest for a leading protester against the G8 summit (played by The Carrie Diaries‘ Jake Robinson).

The Following‘s Adam Armus and Kay Foster co-wrote the script with Peter Horton (who will direct the pilot).

The cast also includes Pushing Daisies‘ Anna Friel, Lost‘s Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje and It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia‘s Nate Mooney.
