CSI alumna Elisabeth Shue is taking charge of some bad superheroes.
The actress will co-star in Amazon’s straight-to-series comic book adaptation The Boys as Vice President of Hero Management Madelyn Stillwell, our sister site Deadline reports.
The drama — adapted by Eric Kripke (Timeless, Supernatural) — revolves around a group of vigilantes known informally as “the boys,” who set out to take down corrupt superheroes. Shue’s Madelyn oversees PR dilemmas, such as when superhero A-Train accidentally kills an innocent bystander, or when a mayor requests a superhero for his own beleaguered city.
