Well, this is adorable! Debra Messing’s old Will & Grace co-star, Sean Hayes, has landed a guest arc on Smash!

Sean will play, according to The Hollywood Reporter, “Terrence Falls, a comedic TV and film star who is making his Broadway debut in the musical Liaisons, based on the novel Les Liaisons Dangereuses. However, due to a series of comedic circumstances, he becomes a thorn in the side of Megan Hilty’s Ivy and other characters.”

On Will & Grace, Sean played Will’s other best friend, Jack McFarland.

Debra and Sean riffing off each other like old times will be fun to watch!

Smash returns to the NBC schedule mid-season.

    Loves it!… although it would be better if the character Karen Walker came on the show. Every show needs an old, drunken gold digger.

     
    Jokes aside, Debra and Sean have perfect chemistry, so of course it’ll be good.

    Isn’t it “Dangereaux? ” is the other spelling a joke? (I don’t get that part.)

    He’s so talented. Looking forward.
