"Heroes star Ali Larter has landed the female lead opposite Sean Bean in new spy drama Legends. The TNT pilot - from Homeland exec Howard Gordon - stars Bean as Martin Odum, an undercover CIA operative who is a master of disguise.   Larter will play fellow agent Crystal, who objects when Bean&amp;#039;s character returns to her task force, Deadline reports. Outside of her Heroes stint, the 36-year-old actress is best known for her film credits, including roles in the Final Destination and Resident Evil films. Last season, she was cast in another spy pilot - Fox&amp;#039;s The Asset opposite The West Wing&amp;#039;s Bradley Whitford - but the project was not picked up to series. Legends will also star Steve Harris (Awake), Amber Valletta (Revenge) and Tina Majorino (Veronica Mars). Brendan Fraser was originally cast in the lead role, but dropped out following a creative disagreement with exec producer Gordon and was ultimately replaced by Sean Bean. &amp;gt; Leverage canceled by TNT after five seasons &amp;gt; Homeland producers sell new Middle East TV drama to FX "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
