Thanks to Janet for the heads up.
Some screwy witch is messing with LUX's resident newlyweds—a witchy woman, that is.
The ridiculously cute Jamie Ray Newman, star of last fall's Eastwick, is set to stir up all sorts of trouble in Life Unexpected's second season, show reps confirm to us exclusively. Even better, we've got loads of details on the homewrecking hottie from LUX's show runner extraordinaire, Liz Tigelaar...
Before you freak out, the arrival of Newman's character does not mean that Ryan (Kerr Smith) and Cate (Shiri Appleby) are over, not by a long shot. But once you tune into Monday's season premiere, you get the idea that things are not all sunshine and rainbows between the two—especially when Ryan gets a mysterious phone call from a "Julia," and the audience is privy to a one-sided convo that goes something along the lines of: "Don't worry. Everything's fine. Cate has no idea." Hmph. We don't like it. But it does create a slot for Jamie on LUX, so it's a good thing, right?!
"We're so excited Jamie's playing Julia," Liz gushes. "She's really, really good." Just don't expect to see the starlet right of the bat; it's a slow burn before Jamie's "other woman" makes her debut.
Explains Liz: "We [introduce] Julia in the premiere, and then we let Cate and Ryan go on with their lives for a little bit. But her name starts coming up again, and Cate's confused about who this person is. We'll actually see some flashbacks of who this person is, and how she knows Ryan."
"Julia's a person who was an integral person in Ryan's past," Liz teases. "He's moved on and is with Cate, but in the course of season one she reappeared and there are repercussions of that. She's definitely lightly threaded into the first 13, and if we get a back nine, she'll be back. She be a character who's going to stir some stuff up for them."
And now the important question: Is Ryan not really the wonderful, perfect guy we thought he was? "Ryan is as a great as we think he is," Liz tells us, defending him, "it's just that he is human."
Are you loving Jamie Ray Newman's casting, or is Julia already on your hit list? Give us the goods below, and in the mean time, do not miss Life Unexpected's second season premiere Tuesday Sept. 14 at 9 p.m. on the CW. And check back soon for more LUX scoop.
