Pity it isn't Michael Rooker. But I'm sure it'll be an amazing guest nonetheless

I haven't started with Defiance, but she's great in The Boondock Saints II. So this is a great start indeed for this year's line-up of actors and actresses.

I gasped... out of sheer surprise when I saw the anouncement on the FB-page. I was like *zoinks* "OMG!! Julie Benz will be at FACS!" ... "But hang on, she's in Defiance...." -- which I love btw -- "...when's season 2 being filmed?"
Cause Defiance was already renewed for a second season. Yay!
Maybe I should just ask her on twitter ... she should bring Jaime Murray with her, those two together are a blast.
