Dana Delaney Joins Amazon's HAND OF GOD Pilot

Amazon Studios has Enlisted a two-time Emmy winner.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, former Body Of Proof star Dana Delaney has signed on for the studio's upcoming pilot, HAND OF GOD, also featuring Ron Perlman. Marc Forster (WORLD WAR Z) will direct the pilot from BURN NOTICE's Ben WAtkins.

Delaney "will play Crystal Harris, the wife of powerful Judge Pernell (Ron Perlman). The one-hour pilot follows Pernell, a law-bending man with a call girl on the side, who has a religious awakening. He begins to have visions and hear voices -- that could be God speaking to him -- through his ventilator-bound son."

Production on HAND OF GOD is set to kick off next month.

Delany is best known for her role as Colleen McMurphy on the ABC television show China Beach, for which she won two Emmy Awards. Her TV credits include Pasadena (2001), Presidio Med (2002-2003), and Kidnapped (2006-2007). From 2007 to 2010 Delany played Katherine Mayfair on the ABC series Desperate Housewives and recently starred as Megan Hunt on the ABC drama series Body of Proof.
