Chuck

Gulp.

With Chuck taking a prolonged absence from NBC (new episodes return on April 11), Michael Ausiello asked executive producer Chris Fedak if he could at least tease viewers with an upcoming, significant development.

Referring to the season’s May 9 episode, he acquiesced and eerily teased: “Something terrible happens to someone we love."

Might this piece of casting news be related to that spoiler?

The series is seeking an actor to come on board as Clyde Decker. The network describes this character as a “determined and remorseless CIA agent who will go to any lengths and spare no expense - or life - in order to keep the CIA’s secrets buried.”

Like we said: Gulp!
