Ryan Seacrest Productions&#8217; Ryan Seacrest, Nina Wass, Andrea Shay, and Jeffrey Reiner serve as executive producers with Reiner (&#8220;<em>Dirty John<\/em>&#8220;) directing the pilot. The series is produced by ABC Signature.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>The Watchful Eye<\/em>&#8221; follows Elena Santos, a young woman with a complicated past, maneuvering her way into working as a live-in nanny for an affluent family in Manhattan. She quickly learns that everyone in the mysterious building has deadly secrets and ulterior motives. What they don&#8217;t know, however, is that Elena has some shocking secrets of her own.<\/p><div id=\"morty-1350242698\" class=\"morty-content\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m incredibly excited about this series because it presents a contemporary twist on the classic mystery and thriller genre,&#8221; stated Jamila Hunter, EVP of Programming and Development for Freeform. &#8220;Julie, Emily, and everyone on the team have created a surprising world of haves and have-nots that&#8217;s perfect for Freeform&#8217;s audience.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are so excited to be working with our partners at Freeform and ABC Signature on &#8216;<em>The Watchful Eye<\/em>,&#8217; an updated twist on a classic Hitchcockian thriller featuring an empowered female lead who&#8217;s got an ax to grind,&#8221; say Fox, Wass, and Shay. &#8220;An elegant New York City apartment building called The Greybourne provides a backdrop where nothing is as it seems and where the palace intrigue has an undercurrent of terror. Elena Santos is very much a force to be reckoned with, and the Manhattan power players who underestimate her may soon realize they&#8217;ve met their match. In this day and age, who doesn&#8217;t secretly long to eat the rich?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>The Watchful Eye<\/em>&#8221; cast is led by Mariel Molino (&#8220;<em>Promised Land<\/em>&#8220;) who plays Elena Santos, a bright, savvy young woman hired as the live-in nanny to a wealthy widower and his young son. When Elena moves into The Greybourne, a landmark Manhattan apartment building, she quickly learns about the complex politics among its wealthy inhabitants and a history riddled with mystery and tragedy. Luckily, Elena is more than equipped to handle anything that comes her way on her own terms. Warren Christie (&#8220;<em>The Village<\/em>&#8220;) plays Matthew, a self-made architect dealing with grief and confusion over his wife&#8217;s death and its impact on his young son. Kelly Bishop (&#8220;<em>Gilmore Girls<\/em>&#8220;) portrays Mrs. Ivey, a lifelong resident of The Greybourne who rules the roost and is accustomed to getting her way through a potent combination of wealth, power, and sheer force of will.<\/p>\n<p>Additional cast includes Amy Acker (&#8220;<em>The Gifted<\/em>&#8220;) as Tory, a woman who instantly dislikes the fresh-faced, eager young nanny hired by her handsome brother-in-law, Matthew. Jon Ecker (&#8220;<em>Firefly Lane<\/em>&#8220;) stars as Scott, Elena&#8217;s sharp and cunning boyfriend who has helped arrange for Elena to get a live-in job at The Greybourne. Lex Lumpkin (&#8220;<em>All That<\/em>&#8220;) portrays Elliott, a precocious teenager who lives in The Greybourne and strikes up an instant friendship with Elena. Henry Joseph Samiri (&#8220;<em>The Bold and the Beautiful<\/em>&#8220;) as Jasper, Matthew&#8217;s son, an intelligent but withdrawn child still reeling from the recent death of his mother. Aliyah Royale (&#8220;<em>The Walking Dead: The World Beyond<\/em>&#8220;) rounds out the cast as Ginny, who works alongside Elena as a nanny and is one of the few people who can get past her new friend&#8217;s tough outer shell.<\/p><div id=\"morty-1039481227\" class=\"morty-content_2\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Freeform has ordered new scripted series, &#8220;The Watchful Eye,&#8221; from Ryan Seacrest Productions.
