*Rutina Wesley will follow up her seven-season run on HBO’s “True Blood” with a lead part in ABC’s period female-cop procedural drama pilot “Broad Squad.”

A fictionalized account of the graduating class of Boston’s first female patrol officers in 1978, the project centers on four newly minted cops — Eileen, Molly (Charlotte Spencer), Lisa (Cody Horn) and Joanne (Wesley) — who arrived at a tumultuous time in the city’s history and have to navigate rival neighborhoods as well as the conflicting attitudes toward them from everyone.

Wesley is currently recurring on “Hannibal.”
