BOSCH: LEGACY (Freevee) - Max Martini has scored a recurring role on the spin-off's sophomore season as Don Ellis, "a hardened vice cop in the LAPD. He's intelligent and fierce, and not above getting down and dirty with the criminals he polices to get the job done." (Deadline.com)

Lexi was raised in a rarefied world of boarding schools and private planes and is comedically out of touch with how normal people live. A former almost-Olympian horse jumper, Lexi exudes extreme confidence. But the truth is she's in way over her head and if the newspaper fails, she'll never win her father's approval - something she desperately wants." (Deadline.com)
UNTITLED ORPHAN PROJECT (Hulu) - Imogen Reid will star opposite Ellen Pompeo in the limited series, which is "inspired by the true story of a Midwestern couple who adopts a young girl with a rare form of dwarfism (Reid)." (Deadline.com)
