The CBS comedy pilot “Eternally Yours” is rounding out its cast with three new additions.
Variety has learned that Rose Abdoo (“Hacks,” “Gilmore Girls), Tristan Michael Brown (“Pretty Freakin’ Scary” “Bunk’d”), and Shylo Molina (“The Afterparty,” “The Really Loud House”) have all been cast as series regulars in the single-cam comedy pilot, which hails from Joe Port and Joe Wiseman, who developed the hit CBS comedy series “Ghosts.”
The trio join previously announced cast members Ed Weeks, Jaren Lewison, Allegra Edwards, Helen J. Shen, and Parker Young. Full character descriptions for the new cast can be found below.
The official logline for “Eternally Yours” describes the pilot as, “An eternal love story about two vampires (Edwards, Weeks) who have been married for five hundred years, and their struggles to accept the human (Lewison) who is dating their daughter (Shen).”
Abdoo is repped by Silvera Arougheti Entertainment Group & Innovative Artists. Brown is repped by Firestarter Entertainment. Molina is repped by Mitchell & Associates Talent and TalentWorks
Port and Wiseman are writers and executive producers on “Eternally Yours.” Eric Tannenbaum, Kim Tannenbaum, and Jason Wang also executive produce. Trent O’Donnell will direct and executive produce. CBS Studios will produce.
Character Descriptions:
Rose Abdoo as Phyllis — Phyllis met her husband Jesse (Young) in 1985 when he pulled up in his Trans Am. She has no idea she lives with a family of vampires (and has given birth to a set of half-vampire twins – Mort & Henry!) While now old enough to pass as Jesse’s mother, she still catches his eye when she wears a sweater set, and the daily wiping of her brain to erase her memory of vampires has taken a toll on her mental state.”Tristan Michael Brown as Mort — “Mort is one half of a set of half-vampire fraternal twins. He is constantly reminded how average he is compared to his brother Henry. Mort’s definitely gotten the short end of the hybrid human-vampire stick, with an unimpressive ability to read the family dog’s mind. Still, nothing is keeping this guy from pursuing his dream job – standup comedian.”Shylo Molina as Henry — “Henry is one half of a set of half-vampire fraternal twins. His romance-novel heartthrob level gorgeousness (like a young Robert Pattinson) would make him worthy of his own YA teen drama. Instead, he’s burdened by the pain and state of the world. Perfect at everything, he’s gifted with super strength and super speed. Still, not enough to bear the exquisite pain life has to offer.”
