Ellie Kemper is headed to a new small screen series.
The former “Office” star has signed on to appear on CBS’ “How I Met Your Mother,” according to TV Line.
The actress will play Cassie, a character “HIMYM” co-creators Carter Bays and Craig Thomas describe as “one of the most attractive, available, and — as Ted discovers — unfortunate guests at Barney and Robin’s wedding,” the website reported.
So far, Ellie is only slated to appear in one episode during the show’s final season.
Additionally, “The View” co-host Sherri Shepherd will also make a “HIMYM” appearance.
“How I Met Your Mother” Season 9 premieres on September 23 at 8 PM on CBS.
