Another Nikita star is off the market.

Aaron Stanford, who plays tech God Birkhoff on the about-to-conclude CW drama, has landed the lead role in Syfy’s 12 Monkeys pilot, TVLine has learned.

An adaptation of the 1995 Terry Gilliam film, Monkeys follows the journey of a time traveler from the post-apocalyptic future who appears in present day on a mission to locate and eradicate the source of a deadly plague that will eventually decimate the human race.

Standford will play said time traveler Cole — aka the Brice Willis role.

Additionally, Amanda Schull (Suits, Pretty Little Liars, Center Stage) has been cast as Cassandra Railly, a brilliant doctor who is forced to choose between her idyllic life or joining Cole’s mission to uncover the dangerous conspiracy.

Filming on the pilot, which was penned by former Nikita scribes Terry Matalas and Travis Fickett, is set to begin this month, with 12 Monkeys movie producer Charles Roven on board as an EP.

The news comes just days after Standford’s Nikita co-star, Shane West, was cast as the lead in WGN America’s first scripted series Salem.

Nikita‘s final season premieres on Nov. 22 on The CW.
