Nazanin Boniadi is set to get Scandal-ous.

The actress, recently seen throughout Homeland Season 3 as CIA analyst Fara Sherazi, will debut on the ABC drama's February 27 winter premiere and play a major role on all eight remaining Scandal Season 3 episodes.

However, The Hollywood Reporter has no further details on Boniadi's role.

Darn you, Shonda Rhimes, and you're totally awesome mysteries!

The third season will return with Mama Pope still very much on her daughter's mind mind and with re-election very much on the mind of Fitz.
