The Night Shift is admitting two very familiar faces for potentially major roles.
Rachelle Lefevre (Under the Dome) and Missy Peregrym (Rookie Blue) are both set to guest-star in the season-four finale, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
Lefevre will play Major Natasha Anthony, a new military doctor coming into San Antonio Memorial Hospital. Peregrym will portray Reagan, a female Ranger who comes in as a paramedic and clashes with Drew (Brendan Fehr).
Both characters' arcs are left open-ended in the finale, with the potential to return in a larger capacity in season five if the medical drama is renewed. Produced by Sony Pictures Television, The Night Shift has been a modest but reliable summer performer for NBC at a time when many other broadcast networks are increasingly looked to unscripted programming to fill their summer schedules.
