All My Children alum Jill Larson (ex-Opal Cortlandt) knows how to bring spine-tingling thrills, as evidenced by her roles in Shutter Island and The Taking of Deborah Logan. So, might she be bringing more terror in her latest gig -- a guest-starring role in the new Amazon series Hunters?
The David Weil series takes place in New York City in 1977 and follows a diverse band of Nazi hunters who have discovered that hundreds of high-ranking Nazi officials are living in the city and conspiring to create a Fourth Reich in the U.S. The eclectic team of Hunters, as they are called, set out on a bloody quest to bring the Nazis to justice and thwart their new genocidal plans.
According to IMDb, Larson will be appearing in the second episode of the series, which is set to premiere on Friday, February 21. She's listed as a character named Frannie Fischer; unfortunately, no other character details are available at this time.
Actors set to star in Hunters include Al Pacino, Logan Lerman, Kate Mulvany, Tiffany Boone, Carol Kane, Saul Rubinek, Josh Radnor, Louis Ozawa Changchien, Jerrika Hinton, Greg Austin, Dylan Baker, and Len Olin.

Larson starred on All My Children from 1989 to 2013, a long stint that made her a fan-favorite Pine Valley staple. Her other soap credits include As the World Turns' Judith Clayton, One Life to Live's Ursula Blackwell, and The Young and the Restless' Connie Ross.
