"Jericho" Star to Join Cast of "24"

Check it out...direct from zap2it:

Sprague Grayden, most recently seen on CBS' "Jericho," has landed a recurring role on FOX's "24."

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Grayden will play Olivia Taylor, daughter of President Allison Taylor (Cherry Jones) and the nation's first First Husband (Colm Feore).

It's unclear how many episodes Grayden's character will appear in or what sort of inevitable trouble she'll find herself in. The HR story also doesn't say whether or not Olivia will be introduced in the two-hour "24" prequel which will air in November and bridge the long gap between the show's sixth and seventh seasons. Part of the prequel is expected to deal with President Taylor's inauguration.

Great to see another friendly face and capable actor join 24!
