Blair Underwood – ABC/Giovanni Rufino(LOS ANGELES) — Ava DuVernay has recruited some additional talent to help her round out the cast for her upcoming Netflix series, Central Park Five

Each episode will focus on the five teens, beginning in spring 1989, when each was first questioned, to 2014, when they were exonerated.

The newest additions included Quantico‘s Blair Underwood, Joshua Jackson, Christopher Jackson, Omar Dorsey, Adepero Oduye, Famke Janssen, Aurora Perrineau and William Sadler.
