The Cast of The Nine

Nine strangers end up in a Los Angeles bank on a fateful morning, as two men lock the doors, pull their guns and announce a bank robbery that will "only take five minutes." But 10 minutes into the pilot episode, it's revealed that the bank robbery has gone terribly wrong. SWAT storms the bank, rescuing the hostages and capturing the robbers - but two people are dead. These nine survivors are now banded together as an unlikely family, as they re-enter their lives and grapple with how this seminal event has changed them forever.

"The Nine" is a complex character-based drama series that will unravel the mystery of what transpired during this 52-hour hostage situation in chronological flashbacks that open each episode. But the heart of the series is how that harrowing experience impacted our key characters in their present day lives, as they continue to intertwine, deepen and complicate their connections to one another. Revolving through police, legal and medical worlds, the series is one of hope and rebirth, as the characters continue to reinvent themselves in a positive way or are haunted by fateful decisions from which they're still struggling to recover.

Nick Cavanaugh (Tim Daly), a charming police detective with a complicated past, is caught in the center of the standoff; Malcolm Jones (Chi McBride) is the kind and patient branch manager of the bank; Kathryn Hale (Kim Raver) is a career-driven Assistant D.A.; Jeremy Kates (Scott Wolf) is a hotshot surgeon to whom everything has come easily; Lizzie Miller (Jessica Collins), a compassionate hospital social worker, is Jeremy's girlfriend; Egan Foote (John Billingsley) is a suicidal nebbish who becomes an unlikely hero; Eva Rios (Lourdes Benedicto), a single mom and bank teller, is sparking to a new romance with Nick; Franny (Camille Guaty), Eva's party girl younger sister, is the bank teller who got Eva her job at the bank; Felicia Jones (Dana Davis), Malcolm's sheltered daughter, is mysteriously shattered by the bank crisis; and Lucas Dalton (Owain Yeoman) is one of the two bank robbers looking to change his life.

The series stars Lourdes Benedicto ("24"), John Billingsley ("Star Trek: Enterprise"), Jessica Collins ("Ghost Whisperer"), Tim Daly ("Wings"), Dana Davis ("Veronica Mars"), Camille Guaty ("Prison Break"), Chi McBride ("Boston Public"), Kim Raver ("24"), Scott Wolf ("Party of Five") and Owain Yeoman ("Troy").

"The Nine" was created by the brother and sister writing team of Hank Steinberg ("Without a Trace," "61*") and K.J. Steinberg ("Beautiful People," "Judging Amy"). Hank Steinberg and Alex Graves ("The West Wing"), who directed the pilot, are executive producers and K.J. Steinberg is co-executive producer/writer. The series is from Warner Bros. Television, in association with Sunset Road Productions.
