Top-secret Role

Sarah Clarke is returning to TV, and making it a bit of a 24 reunion at that and a family affair.

The actress, who played that bitch Nina on the hit Fox show, has landed a role on The CW’s Nikita. She will appear during the show’s sophomore season’s second half next year...but that’s pretty much it when it comes to the particulars of her participation.

A little nepotism may have gone into Clarke’s casting (and thanks the heavens for that): She is married to Xander Berkeley, who plays the villainous Percy on the show.
