Casting News for IMPULSE

Universal Cable Productions and YouTube have cast Maddie HassonSarah Desjardins, Missi Pyle, Enuka Okuma, and Craig Arnold as series regulars on the sci-fi thriller “Impulse.” The series, based on the third novel in the “Jumper” series by Steven Gould, features a rebellious 16-year-old girl, “Henry,” (Maddie Hasson) who has always felt like an outsider among her peers and longs to escape her seemingly small town. Eventually, she discovers she has the power of teleportation, confirming her belief of being an outsider — but also making her the target of those who want to control her. Hypnotic’s David Bartis and Gene Klein, who also produce UCP’s “Suits,” will executive produce along with Doug Liman (“Edge of Tomorrow,” “Go”).

Laer Carroll The only elements being taken from "Impulse" is (1) a teenage girl (2) who teleports, or so the announcement suggests. Still, one of the producers IS Doug Liman, and the prime actress is a very experienced and talented young actress, so I suspect the series may be satisfying as long as we don't expect it to duplicate the book.
