Mark Pellegrino to star in The Closer

Lost's Jacob is coming to the aid of The Closer. Actor Mark Pellegrino, who also played Supernatural's Lucifer, will recur on the TNT series beginning in mid-August.

Pellegrino will play Brenda's high-powered defense attorney Gavin Baker, described by executive producer James Duff as "brisk, gay and formidable. He is ruthless in court and still manages to project an air of friendly professionalism."

Mark's character specializes in defending police officers in civil actions. Brenda will require his help after she is sued by the family of a gang member she placed in harm's way. "Though he is easy to like, Gavin is extremely dangerous to underestimate," Duff adds. "He is the only person on earth who can make Brenda hang up her cell phone."

First Look at Josh Holloway Back in Action

When I last saw Josh Holloway in Hawaii during the final months of Lost, he was a proud new dad excited about the possibility of becoming a movie star. Well, mission accomplished! On December 16, Josh will appear with Tom Cruise in Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol as Impossible Missions Force Secret Agent Hanaway.

"He is a cocky badass who is single but involved with someone," says Josh. The top-secret mission took Josh from Vancouver to Prague. "Tom gave me great advice on my stunts, which were bigger than anything I'd done on Lost," he says. "He told me, 'This is your set. Hang out anytime you want.' He really put me at ease."

Leading up to his big PR push with Mr. Cruise, Josh has united with Nature Valley (yes, the granola company) to aid endangered tortoises in Joshua Tree National Park, as well as gain support for the National Parks Conservation Association. "I love outdoors, so the message is right up my alley," explains Josh, who turns down many more offers than he accepts. Case in point, he says he passed on three television pilots, including a chance to reteam with former costar Michael Emerson (Ben) in Lost creator J.J. Abrams' Person of Interest for CBS.

But he couldn't resist the chance to play paintball with pal Chevy Chase in Community's May 5 episode as a mystery man named Black Rider who first crosses paths with Annie on campus (the paintball action continues in Part 2 of the finale the following week). "Chevy was a huge Lost fan who used to call me at random times and leave me funny messages," Josh says. "So when this opportunity came up, I said, 'Heck yeah!'"

First look at Elizabeth Mitchell on Law and Order: SVU



While her warrior-like V character is fighting to save her only child from evil lizards, Elizabeth Mitchell is also playing another role — one kiddies should fear. The beloved Lost alum guest stars on Law & Order: SVU on March 30 as June, a piano teacher accused of killing a little girl after raping her with a rolling pin. It's pretty heavy stuff, which caused the real-life mom to take pause.

"I had certain things I was and wasn't willing to do — you never actually see anything," says Elizabeth, who played a different child killer on SVU back in 2003. "This is a hard one. You have to do your work, and then leave it behind before going home because it's absolutely toxic."

Rebecca Mader cast in ABC's Pilot - Work It

Lost alumna Rebecca Mader, who is recurring on ABC’s freshman drama No Ordinary Family, is staying at the network but switching to comedy with a role in ABC’s comedy pilot Work It. The multicamera project, from Andrew Reich and Ted Cohen, is about out-of-work car salesmen Lee and Angel (Amaury Nolasco) who realize that it is now a woman’s world and decide that in order to find work again and succeed they are going to have to dress as women to get jobs as pharmaceuticals reps. Mader, repped by Innovative and Mosaic, will play a bitchy and pseudo-sophisticate drug sales rep with a know-everything attitude.

LOST Numbers on Chuck

Thanks to Jim for the heads up.

"Not sure if you spotted the Lost nods on tonights episode of Chuck, but the numbers showed up as well as our favorite multiple personality scientist. The numbers were on a bank card, go figure, they have something to do with money. And the good doctor was a bank manager."

And thanks to Matthew for the screencap.
