20th Television and A+E Studios are currently developing a new pilot called “Criminal Nature”, which is going to star Michaela McManus, Ian Duff and Parker Young. The new series is being created by Rashad Raisani, who is also executive producing the show along with A+E Studios’ Barry Jossen and Tana Jamieson.

“Criminal Nature”, which was formerly known as a National Parks project, is described as a propulsive, soapy procedural set in the stunning world of America’s great outdoors. The story revolves around the tangled, messy lives of the agents who work for the ISB — an elite law enforcement unit responsible for solving all serious crimes that occur in our country’s 81,000 square miles of protected land.

According to Deadline, Julia Chan has joined the pilot and will play the role of Lisa, the medical agent on Audrey’s (McManus) ISB (Investigative Services Branch) office, and a master of earth and life sciences. Quirky and off-center but always fashion forward, Lisa is proud of her Chinese roots and fiercely protective of her squad.

Julia Chan has previously starred in Netflix’s “Archive 81”, CW’s “Katy Keene” and “Schitt’s Creek”.

The pilot has been ordered by ABC, should the pilot get picked up for a full season, we should expect to see the series released on Hulu in the United States and released as a Star Original on Disney+ internationally.
