Rachel Bilson has joined Fox’s dramedy pilot Lovestruck.
She is set to play the female lead, aka the bride in the tentatively titled pilot wedding night series. Bilson’s bride, Daisy Valentine, is described as a “bolt of pure sunshine,” sweet and thoughtful yet assertive.

Inspired by the French series, Quadras, the entire first season takes place over the course of a single night at a wedding.
