Lisa Edelstein to Guest Star on Scandal

Lisa Edelstein has landed another high profile guest-starring role.

The ex-House actress - who has appeared on The Good Wife, Elementary and House of Lies since leaving that Fox hit - has been cast on an upcoming episode of Scandal, according to TV Line.

Details on the character are scarce, but Edelstein will come on board as a client of Olivia Pope and Associates on an installment set to air some time this spring.

Following the truly shocking events of last week's episode, Scandal Season 2 fast forwards 10 months and airs another crazy hour this Thursday at 10/9c on ABC.
