Ashley Judd is making her first foray into a regular TV series role by signing on to star in the new ABC drama 'Missing'.
She will play a worried mom who travels to Europe to find her son, who has disappeared in Italy while on a summer internship. It soon becomes clear that this isn't any ordinary woman, but a former CIA agent who will stop at nothing to bring her son home alive.
The project, from Greg Poirier, National Book of Treasures: Book of Secrets, most likely be set for the fall. Judd previously appeared in the 1990s TV series 'Sisters'.
