The CW's key art for 'Nancy Drew,' which has a plot that sees the teenage detective suspected of murder. The adult cast of the show, meanwhile, is led by Party of Five's Scott Wolf as Nancy's widowed father Carson, who is dating local police detective Karen Hart (Alvina August of The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina).

The initial prime suspect is her husband Ryan (Riley Smith), though his solid alibi leaves a number of other cast members as possible murderers.Īmong the suspects are Nancy herself, her high school nemesis George Fan (played by Leah Lewis), mysterious rich girl Bess Marvin (Maddison Jaizani), Nancy's secret boyfriend Ned 'Nick' Nickerson (Tunji Kasim) and Ace (Alex Saxon), described in The CW plot synopsis as an 'amiable burnout.' The first season sees Nancy among the suspects of the murder of Tiffany Hudson (Sinead Curry), killed outside of a restaurant.

The eponymous teen detective will be played by Kennedy McMann, a relative newcomer to screens with only episodes of Law & Order: SVU and Gone to her name. Kennedy McMann leads the cast of the 2019 'Nancy Drew' series on The CW.
