Former 24 heroine Reiko Aylesworth has booked a recurring role on Damages, sources confirm to me exclusively.
Not surprisingly, details about her character are being kept under wraps. The actress joins a season 3 cast that also includes new series regulars Campbell Scott and Martin Short, as well as special guest stars Lily Tomlin and Keith Carradine.
Production of the show’s 13-episode third season began last week ahead of a January debut.

I LOVE Reiko! RIP Michelle. I’m still in the first season of Damages, and this is just another reason to get myself moving to finish the first two before the third starts!
Great news! Loved her on 24. I kinda wish they would just bring her back from the dead though, I miss her a lot.
Ooooooooo! Great news!
FYI she was at least in the pilot of Damages already. Don’t imagine her character is any big secret.
Stephen, I don’t think she was in the pilot of “Damages” but she was in the pilot for “The Forgotten” on ABC.
Lily Tomlin and Martin Short on ‘Damages?’ Interesting.
loved her in 24 and lost…hope she and the show stick around for a fourth season
I thought the second season of Damages was SUCH a letdown. I sure hope it gets back some of the mojo it had in Season One. Yay for Reiko.
If you like Rekio you can catch her in a recurring guest stop on season 1 of Stargate Universe, premiering this friday Octobter 2nd on Syfy!
Great news! She’s excactly the right actress for the show. Terrific talent.
great to see that brunett haired beauty again=) sigh, I miss her in 24=/
Wonderful. She was great on 24.
I’m sure she has the time — she was barely on Lost.
Oh, this is the best news. Love her so much, and am dying to see her back on weekly TV in a substantial role.
Lilly Tomlin and Martin Short is really left field casting. I love it. Not famaliar with the actress but she’ll be a welcome addition to the show. I’m anxiously waiting for Damages to start this winter.
Yay! Michelle is coming back! I haven’t seen her in anything since she died on 24, and I loved her on 24.
