Greta Gerwig Cast As Lead "In How I Met Your Dad"

Greta Gerwig has won the lead role in "How I Met Your Dad."


A spinoff to "How I Met Your Mother," the CBS pilot will emphasize on Gerwig's Sally, described as "a female Peter Pan who has never grown up and has no idea of where she's going in life."

"She has just figured out that she has nothing in common with her husband of less than a year. A break-up is inevitable, but Sally will find a solid circle of support in her friends and family, who are often too willing to give "good" advice that can backfire badly," the official description claims.

"Meanwhile, Sally must filter out the input and decide what;s best for her," and she will finally meet the future dad of her kids.




Gerwig, 30, is the first actor to be cast in the project, which was announced last October.

The Golden Globe-nominated actress will also serve as a writer and producer if the pilot is picked up to series.

"How I Met Your Mother" airs it series finale after nine seasons on March 31.
