Michelle Dockery & Jaeden Martell Will Star in 'Defending Jacob' Series

Michelle Dockery and Jaeden Martell are teaming up for Apple’s new limited series Defending Jacob!

The 37-year-old Godless actress and the 16-year-old It actor (formerly known as Jaeden Lieberher) have both signed on for lead roles alongside Chris Evans, Variety reports.

Defending Jacob is based on the 2012 best-selling book of the same title by William Landay.

It centers on “Andy Barber (Evans), a father whose 14-year-old son Jacob (Martell) is accused of murder.”

Michelle will play Laurie Barber, Andy’s wife and Jacob’s mother.

The series was created, written, and executive produced by Mark Bomback, who will also serve as showrunner. Academy Award-nominee Morten Tyldum will executive produce and direct.

Jennifer Lawrence & Chris Pratt Get Big 'Passengers' Pay Days

Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt are nearing a deal to star together in the upcoming sci-fi drama Passengers and their pay days are going to be huge!

The 24-year-old Oscar-winning actress will get a $20 million salary along with 30 percent of the film’s profit after the movie breaks even, according to THR.

Chris, 35, was only supposed to receive $10 million for his work, but after his film Jurassic World broke the domestic and global box office records this weekend, he was able to negotiate his fee up to $12 million.

Passengers, which has been pitched as Gravity with romance, will be directed by Oscar-nominated director Morten Tyldum (The Imitation Game).
