It's another law enforcement role for
Breaking Bad star Dean Norris as he jumps from DEA agent to local detective on an upcoming guest stint on
Criminal Minds, TV Guide reports.
Don't forget to catch: Forest Whitaker Talks about 'Criminal Minds' Spin-off Norris, who also plays the big burly brother-in-law of Bryan Cranston on the AMC series, is set to play a gruff detective at the local Tallahassee police station in May sweeps episode.
The South Bend, Indiana native seems to be in demand for guest spots. Prior to
Criminal Minds, he guest-starred on
Medium last week and is set to appear in an episode of
Lie to Me this season.
As for his main gig, however,
Breaking Bad's third season will kick off Sunday. His character Hank Schrader was promoted and sent to El Paso in season 2, for his heroic killing of Tuco, a violent drug dealer.
Criminal Minds is currently on a four-week hiatus, returning with "The Fight" on April 7. This episode will also feature
the first sighting of Criminal Minds spin-off star Forest Whitaker on the
Minds universe.
