Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Variety reports that actress Anika Noni Rose (Them) has been cast in Showtime's upcoming series adaptation of Let the Right One In, portraying the character of Naomi, a version of Yvonne from the original story. She's described as "brilliant but cynical, Naomi balances life as a single mother with her career as a homicide detective. She’d do anything for her son, Isaiah, and when Isaiah befriends the girl who’s just moved in next door, Naomi’s thrilled, until she starts to suspect something’s off with their new neighbors."

Here's the official synopsis for the series:

The series centers on Mark (Bichir), a father and his 12-year-old daughter, Eleanor, whose lives were changed forever 10 years earlier when she was turned into a vampire. Locked in at age 12, perhaps forever, Eleanor lives a closed-in life, able to go out only at night, while her father does his best to provide her with the minimal amount of human blood she needs to stay alive.
