Latest Casting News

The fall television season is vastly approaching and new characters are coming aboard some of our favorite series. Here's what we know so far:

• Grey's Anatomy has a new intern in the form of Chyler Leigh. Leigh's character, Lexie Grey (Meredith's half-sister), was introduced in the season finale last May. Will Meredith embrace this opportunity or will this send her running for the hills?
  
  
• Kevin Pollak and Kevin Alejandro have joined the cast of the hit CBS legal drama Shark. Pollack's character, Lloyd Cutler, plays the new D.A., and Sebatian's new boss. Alejandro fills in the void left by Sam Page as William Lyons, a new member of Sebatian Stark's team of prosecutors.
  
  
• As previously reported, Superman will get his Supergirl this season on Smallville. After an exhaustive search, Canadian actress Laura Vandervoort was chosen for the role. Supergirl's real name is Kara and she is Clark's cousin from Krypton. Watch for a super romance between Kara and Jimmy Olsen this season. Does that mean Chloe is really dead? You'll have to tune in and find out this fall.
  
  
• Hot on the heels of her recently canceled drama The Wedding Bells, KaDee Strickland didn't have to wait long to nab a new role. Strickland heads over to Private Practice as Charlotte, a doctor at Addison's new office.
