Liv Tyler to Co-Star in HBO’s The Leftovers

Liv Tyler has been chosen to co-star in the new HBO drama pilot The Leftovers. The show is directed by Peter Berg and co-written by Damon Lindelof and Tom Perrottta. Tyler has added to the cast along with Justin Theroux, who was added recently. The series is based on a novel by Tom Perrotta, who previously wrote the novels Election and Little Children (both were also adapted into films). Liv Tyler is most known for her work in the Lord of the Rings films as well as her role in The Incredible Hulk


The story is set after the occurance of the Rapture, but we do not see it play out quite like we might expect. This is the story of the people who did not make the cut and the world that is left behind will never be the same. Tyler will play Meg, a young woman who is getting ready to get married but needs an escape. As a result of this and her unstable state, she is targeted by a members of an enigmatic cult and they try to recruit her. This will mark the first TV appearance in Tyler's career. She is also set to star in two new independent films, Space Station 76 and Jamie Marks is Dead.
