'Grey's Anatomy' Enlists Summer Glau
The "Firefly" favorite will guest star in an upcoming episode of the ABC medical drama.
Fresh off an episode that featured two high-profile guest stars in Peri Gilpin and Nia Vardalos, Grey's Anatomy is admitting Summer Glau to Seattle Grace.
The Firefly and Dollhouse fan favorite will guest star in a February episode of the ABC medical drama from creator Shonda Rhimes, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.

It's unclear what role Glau will play. The actress, whose recent work includes a guest turn on CBS' The Big Bang Theory, NBC's short-lived super hero drama The Cape and Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, is repped by UTA and the Schiff Co.
