A familiar face will be landing in Roswell when The CW’s “Roswell, New Mexico” returns for its second season next year.
Jason Behr, who starred as Max Evans on the original “Roswell” series in 1999, has joined the cast of the midseason drama in an undisclosed recurring role. Behr will appear in multiple episodes of the reboot, including at least one directed by his former co-star and on-screen flame, Shiri Appleby.
“We’re very excited that Jason will be joining us for a multi-episode arc,” executive producer Carina Adly MacKenzie said in a statement. “It’s only fitting that he’s playing a (currently top secret) character with deep ties to Roswell, New Mexico’s history.”
