Minka Kelly and Rachael Taylor will join soap opera star Annie Ilonzeh in ABC's 'Charlie's Angels' reboot. According to Deadline Hollywood, 'Friday Night Lights' star Kelly will play the character previously known as Marisa (the name will be changed), a former Marine weapons expert who is versed in all forms of hand-to-head combat.

Taylor has been tapped to play Abby, described as the youngest and sassiest of the Angels. The character has a notoriously crooked Wall Street father and is a quite the con artist herself.

'General Hospital' veteran Ilonzeh will play Kate, a smart and athletic ex-cop who is also a martial arts expert.

Robert Wagner will voice the unseen Charlie. No word on who will play Bosley.

Leonard Goldberg, Drew Barrymore and Nancy Juvonen are executive producing the project. 'Smallville' veterans Alfred Gough and Miles Millar wrote the Miami-set script and will also executive produce the project.

Ramon Rodriguez has joined the cast of ABC's forthcoming Charlie's Angels reboot.

TV Line reports that the actor will play Charlie's liaison Bosley in the new pilot, which will star Minka Kelly, Rachael Taylor and Annie Ilonzeh as the Angels.

The character was played by David Doyle in the original Charlie's Angels series from 1976 to 1981.

Rodriguez previously appeared in episodes of The Wire and Rescue Me. His film credits include roles in The Taking of Pelham 123 and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

The character of Bosley, reinvented from the original series, was previously described as having "savvy hacking skills" and "a killer six-pack... under his designer suits".

Filming for the Charlie's Angels pilot began last month in Miami.

ABC has cancelled Charlie's Angels.

Production has been shut down immediately on the Miami set, although ABC will continue to air the remaining episodes on Thursdays.

After its premiere on September 22, Charlie's Angels received poor reviews, and has also suffered a sharp decline in ratings.

The Charlie's Angels reboot stars Minka Kelly, Rachael Taylor and Annie Ilonzeh, with Drew Barrymore as an executive producer.

Charlie's Angels joins other axed fall shows such as NBC's The Playboy Club and Free Agents.
