Nimrat Kaur is all excited about her second international TV project, the second season of M Night Shyamalan's "Wayward Pines", where the Indian actress will play an architect.

The 33-year-old "Airlift" star, who was last seen in a pivotal role in "Homeland 4", said she has never worked in a psychological thriller before.

"I am super excited because this is a genre that I have never worked in before and also found this premise very very exciting.

"I have to say that I haven't watched the season one yet. I have just had my hands full so haven't gotten down to watching it but I have heard incredible things about it. I have heard that it's really really cool and it had people hooked right up till the end," Numrat said in a statement.
 

Directed by Indo-American screenwriter M Night Shyamalan, the series is based on the Wayward Pines novels by Blake Crouch.

"I actually skyped with M Night Shyamalan about a week ago and we had a really lovely chat about what Season two is going to be about. He wanted me to watch it and then kind of discuss my character little better in depth but I have not come along to doing that yet."

The model-actress said her character has got various shades.

"I am playing the part of a girl called Rebecca who's an architect and it's very mysterious and you know like cards that unfold episode after episode and towards end of the season you realize who really she is and what her role is in the world they live in," Nimrat said.

The shooting for the show is scheduled to take place from this month in Vancouver and Los Angeles.

The first season of "Wayward Pines" on FX and FX HD from Monday to Friday at 9:00 PM.
