I liked Geena in "A League of their own," but do we really need a liberal female President on TV to prep us for Hillary?

Geena Davis Elected to ABC's White House Drama

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Oscar winner Geena Davis will star as the first female president of the United States in ABC's drama pilot "Commander in Chief."

Kyle Secor was previously cast as her husband, and Ever Carradine as her press secretary. Also on board is Harry J. Lennix as the outgoing president's chief of staff.

The two-hour pilot, from writer/director Rod Lurie, marks Davis' return to ABC. In 2000, she starred in and co-executive produced the network's short-lived comedy series "The Geena Davis Show." Earlier this development season, Davis had a development deal at CBS.

Davis won an Oscar in 1989 for her supporting role in "The Accidental Tourist," and was nominated in the lead actress category in 1992 for "Thelma & Louise." Her feature credits include the two "Stuart Little" movies and "Beetle Juice."
