Former Luke Cage star Mike Colter has booked his first post-Marvel TV role, with the actor signing on as the co-lead in CBS’ supernatural drama pilot Evil.
According to Variety, Evil follows “a skeptical female forensic psychologist (Katja Herbers) who joins a priest-in-training (Colter) and a blue-collar contractor as they investigate supposed miracles, demonic possessions, and other extraordinary occurrences to see if there’s a scientific explanation or if something truly supernatural is at work.”
