Zoey Deutch has landed a new role! The actress is set to join the cast of The 99’ers, alongside previously announced, Emily Bader.

According to Deadline, “Deutch will play Marla Messing, the trailblazing U.S. Women’s soccer executive who oversaw the massively successful 1999 World Cup tournament that set attendance and TV viewership records.” “The story catches up with 1990s U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team in 1999, as they defy the odds to emerge victorious in a dramatic penalty kick shootout against China in the World Cup final, under the scorching summer sun and in a stadium filled with 93,000 fans. This monumental win captivated millions worldwide and forever altered the course of women’s sports.”

This is an interesting casting choice!
