David Anders is a guest star in demand.

The British actor enjoyed a long arc on Heroes, and appeared on the second-ever episode of Lie to Me.

He's now been booked for multiple episodes on the eighth season of 24. He joins other major names on the Fox drama, such as Freddie Prinze Jr. and Katee Sackhoff.

What will Anders be up to? It's unclear. For how long will he be on the show?

"He will be in a handful of episodes," the star's rep told E! News.
