Jessica Biel can’t stay away from a good thriller. After starring in The Sinner and Candy, she returns to the small screen to act in The Good Daughter. Based on Karin Slaughter’s novel of the same name, the show follows Charlotte Quinn (Biel) and her sister, Samantha, whose lives were altered by a tragedy 28 years ago. When Charlotte witnesses another attack in the present day, the two of them have to reflect on their past to solve the mystery finally. Let’s think about who should play Biel’s sister, we guess.
