Jessica Biel is making her return to television.

The former 7th Heaven star will guest star on the New Girl Season 4 premiere as competition for Jess. 

On the September 16 opener, Jess, Nick and company will attend the final wedding of the summer and make a wager to see which of them can get lucky with a guest.

Look for Jess to set her sights on an cute guy (who has not yet been cast)… only to end up vying for his affections with a gorgeous scientist portrayed by Mrs. Justin Timberlake.

Biel has not appeared on television since starring as Mary Camden on the aforementioned drama from 1996-2006.

NOTE: need to catch up prior to the September 16 premiere? You can always watch New Girl online.
