April Lewis

Played By Keke Palmer

 

Keke Palmer is new to BERLIN STATION for Season 2, starring as April Lewis, the newest and youngest case officer assigned to Berlin Station on her first field assignment after making her mark as an analyst at Langley. With a bracing combination of millennial intrepidity and old-fashioned sass, April brings a new-guard mentality often at odds with her old-guard colleagues in a system struggling to preserve its besieged identity. But she is no less determined to make her mark in Berlin as she did back home at Headquarters.


Keke Palmer is an actress, activist, music artist, author, humanitarian, and a passionate voice for her generation. Palmer recently starred on Fox’s hit show Scream Queens as Zayday Williams. She began her career with a breakout role in the film “Akeelah and The Bee” and then starred as the title character in the hit cable series “True Jackson, VP,” for which she received four NAACP Image Awards for Outstanding Performance in a Youth/Children’s Program.

 

In early 2016, Palmer starred in FOX’s Emmy winning, GREASE: LIVE as “Marty.” She also recently made Broadway history as the first African-American and youngest actress to star in Rodgers and Hammerstein’s iconic 1957 musical, “Cinderella.”

 

Palmer has starred in over 20 feature films including box office mega-hit “Ice Age: Continental Drift,” “Joyful Noise,” “Brotherly Love” and “Imperial Dreams.”

 

Among her many television credits are “A Trip to Bountiful,” (for which she earned an NAACP Image Award nomination for Outstanding Actress in a Television Movie, Mini-Series or Dramatic Special); the cable miniseries “Full Circle”; made-for-TV movie “CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story”; and a six- episode arc on the second season of “Masters of Sex.”

 

Palmer just released her groundbreaking EP titled Lauren on Island Records.

 

In January 2017, Simon and Schuster published Palmer’s first book, “I Don’t Belong To You, Quiet the Noise and Find Your Voice.” In the book, no topic is off limits as Keke candidly shares the many bumps and roadblocks she has faced and knows many from her generation are facing today.

 

Palmer currently resides in Los Angeles. She was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois where her heart still resides.
