Lily James was hopeful that Pamela Anderson would be involved in the new miniseries Pam & Tommy, but had no such luck getting the former Baywatch star onboard.

In her first interview about the eagerly awaited project, the Downton Abbey and Cinderella actress said she reached out to Anderson independently ahead of filming but didn’t hear back.
