Grindhouse-inspired series BLOOD DRIVE has tapped Christina Ochoa to star. The series has a 13 episode straight-to-series order from Syfy.
The show centers on Arthur Bailey, a former cop who is now working for a private security company. He partners with Grace, a dangerous femme fatale who has an agenda of her own. Ochoa is set to play Grace.
Grace, who volunteered to participate in the deadly Blood Drive, an underground death race in which the cars run on human blood, needs the winnings to help her beloved sister, and she’s willing to face death on a daily basis for the mere chance of victory. When she’s forced to partner with former police officer Arthur, she’s not thrilled, to say the least. Grace may soon learn that this genuinely moral and nice guy is a determined survivor, just like she is and that she may have more in common with him than she had ever imagined.
Ochoa is currently recurring on TNT’s new series Animal Kingdom. She previously appeared on El Rey’s Matador.
She is repped by Greene & Associates Talent Agency and Luber Roklin Entertainment.
