Oscar winner Mira Sorvino is joining the cast of TNT’s “Falling Skies” — if only for a few episodes.
Sorvino, who won an Academy Award for Woody Allen’s “Mighty Aphrodite,” will appear in a multi-episode arc on the upcoming fourth season of “Falling Skies” as Sara — who’s described as “a woman far removed from her former life as a graphic designer. She is dogged by death at every turn, yet she has never felt more alive, free or fearless.”
Sara eventually meets and bonds with guerilla fighter John Pope (Colin Cunningham).
The sci-fi series, which stars Noah Wyle — and is executive-produced by Steven Spielberg — is currently in production for its fourth season, which is scheduled to premiere next summer.
Moon Bloodgood, Will Patton, Drew Roy, Connor Jessup and Seychelle Gabriel co-star.
