Proving that the “Buy More” reference in the new season of Leverage is more than just a fluke, today we got word that Adam Baldwin will guest star in an episode of the TNT series with a possibility that his role would be recurring.
According to TV Guide, Adam will appear as Col. Michael Vance, an ex-Army Ranger who is now in charge of a government counter-terrorism unit. The Colonel (yep, still a Colonel) tends to think outside the box, however, frequently recruiting small teams of agents — and even civilians — who demonstrate the expertise he needs for a mission. I can see why the Leverage team lands on his radar.
It will be quite a reunion for Adam, who appeared in [easyazon-link asin=”B000055ZFA”]Ordinary People[/easyazon-link] with Leverage lead Timothy Hutton, co-starred in [easyazon-link asin=”B000I0QLQY”]Angel[/easyazon-link] with Christian Kane, and has appeared in two movies for Leverage producer Dean Devlin.
Leverage kicks off its new season on Sunday, July 15 at 8/7c on TNT. However, Adam’s episode, “The Rundown Job,” won’t air until autumn.
Thats some great news. Still a Colonel huh. lol. The role suits him. Its so cool that within the last week, more or less, we see Zac getting a role in Thor 2(maybe, fingers crossed), Yvonne getting on Dexter, and now Adam on Leverage, its fantastic. 🙂
Yay! I can’t wait until this next season!
This is very exciting! I’m so glad that our beloved Chuck actors are getting work and what makes it more special are the Buy More references! 🙂
Yvonne on Dexter and now Adam. Mel, please inform us when Adam’s EP airs. Thanks. 🙂
I wasn’t going to, but since you asked… OF COURSE I’ll post when Adam’s ep airs. Should have photos and video available leading up to it as well.
That *is* great news. I really enjoy seeing the cast of Chuck in other roles.
Now I’m looking forward to seeing Vik Sahay and Scott Krinsky show up on my screen somewhere.
Or – hey! Maybe Jeffster actually will go on tour!
For the record, I loved Leverage before this, but I believe it may have just turned into my new favourite show. 🙂
I don’t really care for Leverage but I’ll definitely watch Adam’s episode. I’ll be keeping an eye on my rss feed on my iGoogle page for an air date.
Maybe now that Zac is back in the States he’ll finalize the Thor role – still got my fingers crossed!
