The following is a guest post from Satellitetvguru.net.
“Fringe”, which begins filming in it’s new hometown of Vancouver today, has recruited a new cast member. “Deal or No Deal” model Meghan Markle is joining the cast for season two.
According to Zap2It.com, “Markle, who has guested on “90210″ and a number of other shows, will have a recurring part on the FOX sci-fi series, according to The Hollywood Reporter. She’ll be playing a young FBI agent who’s described as “attractive, brash and quick-witted.”
It sounds like Markle may be replacing Kirk Acevedo’s Charlie Francis. Acevedo was fired from the show, which he announced on his Facebook page at the end of season one, because the show wanted to focus on the core group of Olivia Dunham (Anna Torv), Peter Bishop (Joshua Jackson) and Walter Bishop (John Noble).
Fringe Television posted the letter that J.J. Abrams recently sent to Markle and all of the new cast and crew members in Vancouver welcoming them to season two. Wonder if he sent an equally cordial letter to those who lost their jobs in NYC thanks to the show’s move?
