The new season of Big Love kicks off in January.

As previously announced, Zeljko Ivanek will return to the HBO hit as J.J. - and he won't come back alone.

Viewers will meet the character's parents early in season four, as we can't wait to see the adults responsible for J.J. and Wanda. As for others to be introduced in early 2010?

Look for Ana's fiancé from Serbia to make an appearance.

Ivanek has been a busy man. He appeared on Heroes last season, earned an Emmy for his work on Damages and will likely reprise his role as the Magister on True Blood at some point.
