  CBS 'TELL ME A STORY' SHOW

Well, this will certainly be a hunky cast: James Wolk, Paul Wesley and Billy Magnussen are set to lead fantasy series TELL ME A STORY

James Wolk will lead the new show

together with Kim Catrall at CBS! The psychological thriller will bring a dark look upon classic fairy tales weaving them into modern setting.

TELL ME A STORY takes the world’s most beloved fairy tales and reimagines them as a dark and twisted psychological thriller. Set in modern day New York City, the first season of this serialized drama interweaves “The Three Little Pigs,” “Little Red Riding Hood,” and “Hansel and Gretel” into an epic and subversive tale of love, loss, greed, revenge and murder.

JAMES WOLK, who starred in CBS's ZOO series, will play Jordan, a young, idealistic and successful New York City restaurateur. When the unimaginable happens,

Paul Wesley will be a derelict druggie!

Jordan’s life falls apart and he begins a decent into madness which could cost him everything, even himself.

PAUL WESLEY, whom you watched in The Vampire Diaries, will portray Eddie, a derelict and troubled individual whose petulance is fuelled even more by his problems with drugs and alcohol. Although he works as a bartender, he also splits his time as a low-level drug dealer and part-time thief with his older brother Mitch, who never fails to treat Eddie as the lowly delinquent that he is.

Kim Catrall a grandmother for the first time

KIM CATRALL, returning to US TV for the first time after Sex and the City, will play Colleen, an unlikely and very non-traditional grandmother. When her son moves back home, bringing with him a troubled teenager, Kayla (Danielle Campbell), this former chorus girl is going to have to grow up finally and take on the parental duties to protect her family against a very dark and sinister threat.

Billy Magnussen will be a young school teacher

BILLY MAGNU SSEN, who will also play a prince in Disney's live action Aladdin, will play Nick, a young high school teacher who’s handsome, seductive, and quite possibly a wolf in sheep’s clothing. After a wild night with a girl he met at a nightclub results in a hookup but no phone numbers swapped, he thinks his chances with her have gone out the window. But when he runs into her again, he’s sure to take advantage of his second chance, proving he’s sensitive, understanding… and, quite possibly, too good to be true.
