Title & Casting Call – added 01.23.11

According to SpoilerTV, Chuck episode 4.17 is titled “Chuck vs. the First Bank of Evil.” Best. Title. Ever!

They’re casting at least two guest stars for this episode: Riley, a powerful lawyer in his 50′s who may be a recurring character, and Henry VIII. Pretty sure the latter is an actor/impersonator but his presence leads me to think we’re staying in England for a while longer as the Vivian arc plays out. Is the lawyer also connected to her? And could the title of the episode be a callback to when we first met Volkoff?
