The CW has targeted its former “Gossip Girl” and “Supernatural” star Katie Cassidy to play the female lead in their upcoming superhero pilot “Arrow,” an adaptation of DC Comics’ “Green Arrow,” starring Stephen Amell as the vigilante superhero.

Cassidy will play attorney and ex-Green Arrow flame Dinah “Laurel” Lance, aka Black Canary. David Nutter (“Entourage”) is attached to direct from a script by writers/producers Andrew Kreisberg (“Warehouse 13”), Greg Berlanti (“No Ordinary Family”) and Marc Guggenheim (Green Lantern).

Cassidy, daughter to ’70s teen idol David Cassidy, has starred in a string of notable genre projects including Platinum Dunes’ A Nightmare On Elm Street, Dimension’s Black Christmas, Screen Gems’ When a Stranger Calls and the short-lived CBS mystery series “Harper’s Island.”

The 25-year-old stunner is part of Clatto’s esteemed list of The 20 Hottest Women Working in Horror/Sci-fi.

“Smallville” alumna Kristin Kreuk is set to star in The CW pilot “Beauty and the Beast,” a re-imagining that Deadline reports to be loosely based on the CBS series that ran in the late ’80s with Linda Hamilton and Ron Pearlman in the lead roles.

The re-do finds Kreuk playing beauty as a tough NYPD cop named Catherine who protects the identity of the man/beast vigilante—the victim of a military experiment gone bad—who avenged her mother’s murder nine years ago.

Kreuk is best known for her role as Clark Kent’s love interest Lana Lang on The CW’s “Smallville.” The Canadian stunner can also be seen in Shunji Iwai’s indie-pleaser Vampire with Rachael Leigh Cook, the less pleasing Street Fighter: Legend of Chun-Li and the hilarious comedy EuroTrip.

“Twin Peaks” star Sherilyn Fenn stars in The Asylum’s new creature-feature Big Foot, set to premiere on the Syfy Channel later this year. Actor-turned-sometime-director Bruce Davison helms the project about lifelong rivals hunting down the legendary beast.

Fenn joins a cast that includes Davison (X2), Andre Royo (“The Wire”), Howard Hesseman (“Head of the Class”), rockers Alice Cooper and Billy Idol, and Barry Williams (“The Brady Bunch”) and Danny Bonaduce (“The Partridge Family”) as the Big Foot hunters.

Unfortunately, time has not been kind to Fenn, whom your penis probably still remembers as sultry sex kitten Audrey Horne on the David Lynch ABC series “Twin Peaks.” If only someone had really amputated the Boxing Helena star’s limbs, she would have never gotten her hands on so many Taco Bell burritos. Damn you, Jennifer Lynch!
