Described as a captivating thriller, the 10-episode first season will be based in part on creator Akiva Goldsman’s own life, and inspired by Daniel Keyes’ acclaimed biography titled “The Minds of Billy Milligan.” Joining Holland are Amanda Seyfried, Emmy Rossum, Sasha Lane, Christopher Abbot and Emma Laird.

The Crowded Room is an anthology series that dives into the true tales of people who have “struggled and learned to successfully live with mental illness.” Holland is set for the lead role of Danny Sullivan, a character loosely based on Milligan, the first person ever acquitted of a crime because of multiple personality disorder (now known as dissociative identity disorder).
