Buffy The Vampire Slayer's Charisma Carpenter Cast In Lucifer Season 2

08/13/2016 10:06 am EDT

Former Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel actress Charisma Carpenter has been cast in a guest-starring role on Season 2 of Fox's Lucifer.

Carpenter will appear in the fifth episode of Season 2, playing former Playmate Jamie Lee Adrienne. Jamie is now married to a washed up action movie star, and she's likely to have some skeletons in her closet.

Carpenter teased her role in Lucifer a few days ago with a tweet from the show's set.

Carpenter is best known by genre fans as Cordelia Chase from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and its spinoff, Angel. Other credits include Veronica Mars, The Lying Game, and Scream Queens.

Carpenter is just the latest new face to join Lucifer. The show is also filling out the fallen angel's family, with Battlestar Galactica's Tricia Helfer as his mother, Charlotte, and Michael Imperioli as his brother, Uriel.

In Season 2, Lucifer (Tom Ellis) and his brother, Amenadiel (DB Woodside), who have been sparring over Lucifer's resistance to returning to the underworld, will now be brought back together for one common goal – to find their mother, Charlotte (Tricia Helfer, Battlestar Galactica), who escaped Hell. After all, Lucifer doesn't take after his dad, so the parent he does resemble is sure to be quite terrifying. Lucifer's work with the LAPD also is upended when the police force hires Ella Lopez (Aimee Garcia, The George Lopez Show), a smart, tough forensic scientist whose mutual belief in both faith and science proves a point of interest to Lucifer.

Lucifer returns to ABC on Sept. 19.
