Developed by Steve Yockey and based on the 2018 novel of the same name, season one of The Flight Attendant follows Cassie Bowden (Cuoco), an American flight attendant who’s a reckless alcoholic who drinks during flights and spends her time having sex with strangers, including her passengers.   

Life takes a big turn for Cassie when she wakes up in a hotel room in Bangkok with a hangover from the night before, and discovers the dead body of a man who was on her last flight lying next to her with his throat slashed.

Panicked and with no idea of what happened, Cassie decides to clean up the crime scene and then catch a flight from Bangkok back to New York City, where she’s greeted by FBI agents. 

As the story transpires, Cassie suffers intermittent flashbacks and hallucinations, all while she wonders who the killer could be.  

Season two reportedly finds Cassie living a sober life in Los Angeles while moonlighting as a CIA asset in her spare time. But things change when an overseas assignment leads her to inadvertently witness a murder, and thus, becoming entangled in another international intrigue.     

Ubach will play Carol Atkinson, also known as Black Market Carol, a well-groomed flight attendant, with an icy personality who is not a fan of Cassie.   

Making her mark: Some fans may recognize Ubach for her role as Suze Howard in the current hit HBO teen drama series Euphoria that stars Zendaya, among many others
