Maggie Q just has been announced as the female lead in the upcoming miniseries "Red Flag", but now has as well been cast in a yet to be titled CBS pilot by Kevin Williamson. Q will star as the female lead next to Dylan McDermott (American Horror Story: Murder House, American Horror Story: Asylum, Hostages). Written by Kevin Williamson and directed by Liz Friedlander, the psychological thriller revolves around Beth (Q) and Jack (McDermott), two detectives, who handle stalking incidents for the Threat Assessment Unit of the LAPD.

Yet the series has no television home in the US, but is currently being offered to different channels.
