CBS has found its next Clarice Starling. Rebecca Breeds will play the FBI agent that was portrayed by Jodie Foster in “Silence of the Lambs,” in the network’s sequel to the 1991 film from Alex Kurtzman.
The project — which has been given a pilot order at the broadcast network, with a penalty set if it doesn’t get ordered to series — follows FBI agent Clarice Starling a year after the film’s events.
Here is how CBS describes the character: Brilliant and vulnerable, Clarice graduated Magna from Uva with a double major in Psych and Criminology. Her bravery gives her an inner light that draws monsters and madmen to her. Her complex psychological makeup comes from a challenging childhood, and her drive comes from her need to escape the burden of family secrets that have haunted her throughout her life.
