Once a Doll, Always a Doll

The 2009 Comic-Con was like the gift that kept on giving with the good news.

Dollhouse boss Joss Whedon confirmed that first-recurring cast member Amy Acker, a Whedonverse vet who left her mark with two very different characters on Angel, will be back on the show’s second season.

Acker will be back in the Dollhouse for three episodes. She will juggle her duties on the Fox show with her full-time gig on ABC’s new drama Happy Town.

Update: While at the Con, Whedon also revealed that Acker’s fellow Angel co-star, Alexis Denisof, will appear on the second season of Dollhouse.

Ditto Firefly and Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles alumna Summer Glau.
