Burbank, CA (CNS) - Krysten Ritter, Ivan Sergei, Ving Rhames And Rachel Hunter are the latest actors to join the cast of the new original drama series "Gravity". The show was formerly known as "Failure to Fly" and will show on Starz from the spring 2010.

"Gravity" follows the lives of a group of out-patients from a program of suicide survivors. Krysten Ritter ("Confessions of a Shopaholic") stars as Lily Champagne, who is in her twenties, seeking the love of a father and clinically depressed. Along with Krysten is Ivan Sergei ("Charmed", "The Break Up") who portrays Robert Collingsworth, a widowed ophthalmologist whose death attempt goes comically wrong leading to him becoming an internet celebrity.

The show also stars Ving Rhames ("Pulp Fiction" and "Day of the Dead") as Dogg McFee, the group's leader and a former Major League Baseball player, now restricted to a wheelchair. Rachel Hunter stars as supermodel Shawna Rollins who has a thing for younger guys and is a former spokesmodel. Robyn Cohen ("The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou" and "Starved"), James Martinez ("Brother to Brother") and Seth Numrich ("How to Kill a Mockingbird") finish off the cast. The 10 episode series of "Gravity" is being produced later this month in New York City.
