The former Friday Night Lights star will play the lead role in the programme, based on the forthcoming series of books by Kiera Cass, reports The Hollywood Reporter. The pilot - which is somewhat similar to The Hunger Games - is set in a war-torn future and follows a young woman who is chosen by lottery to compete for the role of queen. Written by The Vampire Diaries duo Elizabeth Craft and Sarah Fain, it is described as &amp;quot;an epic romance set 300 years in the future&amp;quot;. Teegarden starred for five seasons in Friday Night Lights, while she also appeared in Scream 4 and Prom. The CW has also picked up a new pilot project from JJ Abrams titled Shelter.
