The series premiere of KILLER WOMEN airs Tuesday January 7th at 10 p.m. ET/PT on ABC. Of all the notorious lawmen that ever patrolled the violent frontier, none are more storied than the Texas Rangers. Ballsy and badass Molly Parker (Tricia Helfer) is one of the first women to join this elite group of law enforcement agents. From executive producer Sofía Vergara (MODERN FAMILY) and creator Hannah Shakespeare, KILLER WOMEN takes us inside the dangerous world of the Texas Rangers from a female perspective.
In "La Sicaria," Molly is on the hunt to find the woman who killed an Assistant District Attorney inside a church during her wedding ceremony.
Molly is committed to finding the truth and seeing justice served. In a male-dominated world, she is aided by her sixth sense for why women kill -- rarely out of hatred, usually for what they love. Standing squarely behind her is her boss, Company Commander Luis Zea. Molly also has the support of her loving family, including her brother Billy and his wife Becca. On the verge of getting divorced from her narcissistic husband, Jake, Molly relishes her newfound freedom as she begins an affair with a sexy, dangerously handsome DEA agent, Dan Winston.
KILLER WOMEN stars Tricia Helfer as Molly Parker, Marc Blucas as Dan Winston, Marta Milans as Becca Parker, Michael Trucco as Billy Parker, and Alex Fernandez as Luis Zea.
"It's sort of this quirky procedural where every week we investigate a murder or crime with the Texas Rangers," Fernandez tells We Love Soaps, "which is just a fascinating law organization."
"And then there are the stories of Molly navigating the fact that she's a woman in a very masculine world. I think people are really going to like it. Tricia Helfer, who plays Molly Parker and was on BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, is really terrific on this show. I think she's playing a character everybody is going to love."
The guest cast includes Alexandra Pomales as Hailee Parker, Siena Nicole Agudong as Lulu Parker, Nadine Velazquez as Martina Alvarez, Vic Trevino as Guillermo Salazar, Jeffrey Nordling as Jake Colton, Brad Leland as Wily Whitman, Shane Jacobsen as Jason Bluford, and Alison Viktorin as Heather Mendelsohn.
The pilot, "La Sicaria," was written by Hannah Shakespeare and directed by Lawrence Trilling.
KILLER WOMEN is produced by ABC Studios. Hannah Shakespeare and Ed Zuckerman serve as executive producers/writers, along with executive producers Sofía Vergara, Martin Campbell, Ben Silverman, and Luis Balaguer on the series.
