The Lionsgate TV pilot The Royals has casted William Moseley as its Prince, Deadline reports.

The Chronicles Of Narnia star will take the lead role opposite Elizabeth Hurley in the pilot from One Tree Hill creator Mark Schwahn. It is a contemporary drama about a fictional royal family informed by the regal opulence of the British monarchy and framed by Shakespeare’s Hamlet; a tale of men and women corrupted by power, wealth and desire.

Moseley is repped by APA, Intellectual Artists and attorney Lev Ginsburg.
