Jenny Cooper is coming to TV, and “Inhumans” alumna Serinda Swan will play her. Deadline reports that Swan will topline CBC’s adaptation of M.R. Hall’s best-selling book series “The Coroner.”

Created by Morwyn Brebner, “Coroner” is set in Toronto and follows a former ER doctor who becomes a coroner. The recently widowed mother investigates suspicious deaths. Her husband’s passing has “unlocked a primal connection to death, tied to a secret in her past that is only now coming to the surface,” the source hints.

Muse Entertainment and Back Alley Films are producing the Canadian series.

“Ballers,” “Feud,” and “Graceland” are among Swan’s previous credits. Her role on “Inhumans” required her to shave her head, an experience she wrote about for Glamour in 2017. “I found out pretty quickly that by cutting my hair short, I was challenging the vision of what others thought I should be,” she said. Swan explained, “One of the things that playing Medusa taught me was that when you lose your ‘superpowers,’ you’re given the opportunity to find your true power. These next few years of my life, I am determined to find my own power, and I am going to take back my image and make it what I want it to be. Short hair and all.”

Brebner co-created “Saving Hope” and “Rookie Blue.” She’s also a Dora-winning playwright whose theater credits include “Little Mercy’s First Murder” and “The Optimists.”
