Just scrolling through and had to comment. Jollie is NOT Kay Scarpetta... Lucy, maybe in a stretch, but I don't know that I'd go that far. I hope this is not set in ink yet - I will be extremely disappointed. Like you, I think Jodie Foster would be good.

I always saw Scarpetta as being more like Cornwall herself.

Yes, Exactly that! I sincerely hope they don't misstep in casting Marino either! I always saw Dennis Franz in that role - of course, they've let so much time go by I'm not sure he's right anymore.
