Sources confirm to TV Line that the ABC drama has put out a casting notice for Fitz and Mellie's two kids.

Son Jerry, 15, is outlined as "quite, smart and intense," while younger sibling Karen is far more "self-assured." She coms across as very mature for her age.

Scandal Season 3 remains on hiatus until February 27.

It will return with seven consecutive episodes and these teenagers will appear on Episode 15.
