It sounds like she’ll be stirring up trouble, given that her character is described as “brilliant and devious”.

Alley is the latest newbie to join the Season 2 cast as a series regular, joining the previously casted John Stamos and Taylor Lautner who join the series as Dr. Brock Holt and Dr. Cassidy Cascade, respectively.

Emmy and Golden Globe winning actress Kirstie Alley has landed a series regular role in the upcoming second season of Fox’s Scream Queens.

At the C.U.R.E. Institute, where some of the most fascinating and freaky medical cases are under observation, Alley will play a brilliant and devious administrator.

Rounding out the Season 2 cast are fellow Season 1 stars Lea Michele (Hester Ulrich), Glen Powell (Chad Radwell) and Niecy Nash (Denise Hemphill).

Kirstie Alley is headed to the hospital.

Although the series is less than two weeks away from returning for its second season, the casting of Kirstie Alley is certainly interesting news and it should be fun to see her step into this new role.

Emmy and Golden Globe victor Alley most recently was seen in Will Arnett and Mitch Hurwitz’s comedy, Flaked, and TV Land comedy series Kirstie, for which she served as both star and executive producer.

SCREAM QUEENS is from Ryan Murphy Television and Brad Falchuk Teley-Vision in association with 20th Century Fox Television.

Kirstie Alley is returning to network television this fall.

A far cry from the show’s original sorority setting, Season 2 – which premieres Tuesday, Sept. 20 at 9/8c – takes place at a hospital, one curiously owned by Jamie Lee Curtis’ character, a former college dean. How do you think she will fit in with the rest of the cast?
