OK, they's all set it looks like:

"THE BIONIC WOMAN (NBC) - Miguel Ferrer ("Crossing Jordan") and Chris Bowers ("Rescue Me") have landed the final principal roles on the drama pilot, a re-imagination of the 1970s series of the same name. Bowers will play Dr. Eric Masters, who's described in the casting notice as follows: "Early-Mid 30's, good-looking, sexy, likeable and devoted. He is Jaime's supportive boyfriend of two months who already knows she is the one. As a young prodigy (finished college at age 15 and became a surgeon at 22) he's a genius in his field - bionics - and the only one capable of performing the illegal, complex surgeries the government has been experimenting with. When Jaime nearly dies in a car accident, Eric doesn't hesitate using bionic surgery on her, even though this means going against his superiors and breaking every rule in the book. His innovative behavior and past deeds make him a target of deadly Sarah Corvus."

Ferrer then is set as Jonas Bledsoe - "50s-60's, forceful and not above lying to get what he wants. He is the ruthless leader of the secret government agency that turned Jaime into a Bionic Woman. Though furious with Eric for wasting $50 million worth of classified, illegal technology on "some girl," Jonas decides to use Jaime to track down and retrieve the other Bionic creations who escaped. Topping his list of fugitives is insane, deadly Sarah Corvus, whose violent break-out and subsequent revenge streak haunts Jonas to this day. After using unscrupulous means to manipulate Jaime into joining his organization, Jonas agrees to her terms and we get the feeling he will treat her with respect and honesty from now on." Ferrer's involvement is in second position to his "Jordan" duties however it's understood he could play both roles concurrently."

Looks like the pilot filming start also got pushed back to March 26th, so looks like everything is set to roll.

As for the casting, dunno about Bowers' body of work, having never seen him that I can recall, but Miguel Ferrer (Point of No Return, The Stand) seems like the manipulating head honcho like Bledsoe is described as.

I don't mean to rain on anybody's parade, but the still need to cast three more series regular roles. Production is set to start on March 19. I'm skeptical of them meeting thst date. Is that part of Sarah just for the pilliot or is she ment to b a recurring role series regular?

Nice find, Bionic! Not much to see, but a first glimspe nonetheless. Also, we at least know they ARE filming (or appear to be!)...I would agree and say that looks likes Sarah/Katee in the pics as well....I know/heard her parts were being filmed first due to her schedule (she is shooting a movie right now as well) and she did "stuntwork" on the first day of shooting, so it would prob be a good guees that was her...

Thx for the post!

This may or may not be thie first set of pics from the set of TBW. They came up after a search on Flickr....

I've sent the link for the one pic that actually looks like something is being filmed although it's not easy to figure out who is in this shot. My guess is Katee Sackhoff.

Either way, the photographer's profile contains more shots from the set (from a great distance). Still, it's our first glimpse!

No one knows the excitement I feel right now. Uh, wait. Maybe you do.

I find it somewhat humorous/ironic that they have to make "fake rain" in Vancouver of all places!!!

Hey guys....I took another look at the pics from the set and saw what I think is the familiar profile of Miguel Ferrer in that b&w shot.

Looking at a color pic from the set I think my suspicions are confirmed. Also, I also notice that they are using a rain machine for this scene. Has anyone who has read the script noticed any scenes where it's raining?
