The Librarians: The Next Chapter has cast Air actor Jessica Green as Charlie Cornwall, the Guardian. Already rejected by the Library to serve as a Guardian, Charlie was at a low point in her life when she got the chance to serve as a special guardian on a trial basis. Charlie is trained in the military and, if she can keep the powers that be in line, then she might make that trial status more permanent.

In the spinoff, having been in the job for over a decade, Christian Kane’s Jacob has the job of mentoring Charlie.
