Newberg will cast "First Cut," a medical drama from CBS Studios focusing on a new intern who finds the hospital where she works strikingly similar to high school, socially speaking. Plans are to get under way in mid March. Newberg was the casting director for TNT's long-running series "The Closer," which is in its final season. He's also working on the spin-off, "Major Crimes," which starts shooting this month. "The Selection," will shoot in Vancouver, but it's being cast in Los Angeles by Barbara Stordahl and Angela Terry. The pilot, from Warner Bros. Television, is set 300 years in the future. The protagonist is a poor woman who is chosen to compete in a contest, the winner of which will be crowned queen of a war-torn nation. No shoot date has been set yet. Stordahl/Terry also.
