Believe is about a young girl named Bo who possesses great powers that will come into their own in seven years. She is joined by Tate (Jake McLaughlin), a man who is sprung from prison to protect her from those trying to hunt her down.

Guillory, known for her role as Jill Valentine in the Resident Evil films, will play a hitwoman named Moore. Chung – who had a recurring role as Mulan on Once Upon a Time this season and will be seen soon in The Hangover Part III and Sin City: A Dame to Kill For – will play Channing, who assists Tate after his prison break, while taking her own orders from a man named Winter (Delory Lindo).
Also cast is Johnny Sequoyah (yep, Johnny is a girl) in the crucial role of Bo.
Abrams is executive producing Believe alongside Bad Robot's Bryan Burk, with the project marking the TV debut of the acclaimed Cuarón, the director of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Y Tu Mama Tambien and Children of Men. Cuarón has co-written the pilot with Mark Friedman (The Forgotten) and will direct.
