Rosemary's Baby book coverA couple of weeks back, we brought you some important casting news for the NBC miniseries event for their adaption of Rosemary’s Baby, with the casting of lead actress Zoe Saldana.  Well, today news has developed with more casting announcements on the film.  Patrick J. Adams (Suits, Pretty Little Liars) and Jason Isaacs (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, The Patriot) have both been cast in lead roles.  Read on for more information.

Deadline is reporting, Suits star Patrick J. Adams is set as the male lead opposite Zoe Saldana in NBC’s four-hour miniseries Rosemary’s Baby, an adaptation of the 1967 best-selling suspense novel by Ira Levin. Jason Isaacs also has joined the mini, directed by Agnieska Holland. It centers on Rosemary Woodhouse (Saldana), a young wife and would-be mother who, with her husband Guy (Adams), moves into a Paris apartment that has a dark past. After finally getting pregnant, she becomes increasingly suspicious that both her husband and their mysterious neighbors have ulterior motives about the future of her child.

Isaacs will play warlock/coven-leader Roman Castevet, a role played by Sidney Blackmer in Roman Polanski’s 1968 feature adaptation, in which Guy was played by John Cassavetes.

Filming on Rosemary’s Baby, produced by Lionsgate TV, is slated to begin shortly in Paris.
