Meet the cast of Netflix's In From the Cold

Written and executive produced by Adam Glass (Supernatural, Beyond Borders), the new series revolves around a former Russian spy and single mother called Jenny (Margarita Levieva) whose life is turned upside down on a holiday in Spain when the CIA force her out of hiding, citing evidence that she is a former KGB spy who was the product of a highly classified KGB experiment that granted her surprising abilities.

Talking about Levieva’s character and her superpowers, Glass recently revealed the creation was an ode to his wife.

“And I thought, well, what if my wife was a spy?" he told The Mary Sue. "You know, what if she had a secret past, what if all this stuff? But really sort of visiting this idea, you know, in our society that, I think we have this thing of like women who reach a certain age and they have an expiration date and I think that’s total bulls**t.”
