The upcoming CBS series Blood & Treasure has added Alicia Coppola (ex-Dr. Meredith Gates, The Young and the Restless; ex-Lorna Devon, Another World) to its cast.
The new CBS series Blood & Treasure has already grabbed the attention of daytime fans because it will star The Young and the Restless alum Sofia Pernas (ex-Marisa Sierras). And now, it's getting another boost of soap opera talent: Alicia Coppola (ex-Dr. Meredith Gates, Y&R; ex-Lorna Devon, Another World) has also been added to the cast.
The New York native has signed on for the series regular role of Dr. Ana Castilla in the action-adventure drama that centers on brilliant antiquities expert Danny (Matt Barr) and cunning art thief Lexi (Pernas), who team up to catch a ruthless terrorist whose attacks are funded through stolen treasure.
Coppola's Ana is a world-renowned adventurer and archeologist who will play heavily in story as Danny and Lexi unexpectedly find themselves in the center of a 2,000-year-old battle for the cradle of civilization.
