And we thought spelling the name of the co-creator of Last Resort was tough…

Deadline is reporting that The CW has chosen a new actress to play the lead in their second pilot for The Selection. Last year, for the first pilot, Aimee Teegarden played the role; she is now tied to another CW pilot, Oxygen.

Israeli actress of French-Austrian descent, Yael Grobglas, has been chosen for this revised pilot as America Singer, a working-class woman chosen to participate in a lottery to marry a prince. If it sounds like The Bachelor meeting The Hunger Games, you’d be right. Also like The Hunger Games, The Selection has a lot of competition to get a spot on the schedule. May the odds be in its favor.

The CW will announce their new schedule in May.
