'Breaking Bad' Emmy winner finds her next role.
Anna Gunn, who played the aggrieved enabler of Walter White on AMC's just-concluded Breaking Bad, has found her next gig.
Gunn will play Detective Ellie Miller, who's investigating the death of a friend's child, in Fox's Americanized remake of BBC's Broadchurch, due next season. The remake, to be called Gracepoint, will star Broadchurch's David Tennant as Detective Emmett Carver, who's brought into the case and gets the promotion Miller thought she'd won. Gunn won an Emmy for her role as Skyler White.
Also joining the cast is Jacki Weaver, who played Bradley Cooper's mother (and Robert De Niro's wife) in last fall's Silver Linings Playbook, which won her an Oscar nomination. Weaver plays Susan Wright, a mysterious loner in a trailer park who has ties to the case.
Filming is scheduled to begin in January.
