Nancy Drew is returning for its second season next month, and a new addition has been made to the mystery series based on the Nancy Drew series of books. Kennedy McMann, Scott Wolf, Alex Saxon, Leah Lewis, Maddison Jaizani, Tunji Kasim, Riley Smith, and Alvina Augus star in the series. Aadila Dosani is joining the cast in a recurring role as one-half of the Bobbsey Twins.
The Bobbsey Twins first appeared in the novels written under the pen name, Laura Lee Hope, in 1904. The characters appeared in more than 100 novels between then and 1992.
Deadline revealed more about the addition to The CW series:
“Dosani will play Amanda Bobbsey. One half of the Bobbsey Twins, Amanda is charming, but possesses a manic energy and street smarts as a result of growing up poor and on the wrong side of the tracks. Often resorting to petty crimes with her twin brother, Amanda puts herself and her twin above everyone and everything else. Praneet Akilla (October Faction) portrays Amanda’s twin brother, Gil Bobbsey.”
Nancy Drew is set to premiere its second season on January 20.
