With Vikings nearing the end of its run, star Katheryn Winnick has booked her next series. She has signed on as a lead opposite Ryan Phillippe in The Big Sky, ABC's straight-to-series drama created and executive produced by David E. Kelley.

Written by Kelley, The Big Sky is based on The Highway, the first book in C.J. Box's Cassie Dewell series of novels. In the procedural thriller, private detective Cassie Dewell partners with ex-cop Jenny Hoyt (Winnick) on a search for two sisters who have been kidnapped by a truck driver on a remote highway in Montana. When they discover that these are not the only girls who have disappeared in the area, they must race against the clock to stop the killer before another woman is taken.
