Another YBFer with a new acting gig...
With everything Keke Palmer has going on, the YBF star still managed to land a new acting role. The “Scream Queens” star will be joining the cast of “Berlin Station” for the upcoming second season.
"Berlin Station" centers on a CIA office in the midst of an investigation into a now-infamous whistleblower. The series follows Daniel Miller (Richard Armitage), a new arrival to Berlin’s CIA station, who is on a clandestine mission to uncover the source of the Thomas Shaw leaks.
The “I Don’t Belong To You” author will play April Lewis, the newest and youngest case officer assigned to Berlin Station on her first field assignment after making her mark as an analyst at Langley. With a bracing combination of millennial intrepidity and old-fashioned sass, April brings a new-guard mentality often at odds with her old-guard colleagues in a system struggling to preserve its besieged identity. But she is determined to make her mark in Berlin, as she did back home at Headquarters.
Sounds interesting.
Keke will begin filming for the 10-episode second season in April.
