NBC's sci-fi drama "The Event" may be on a three-month hiatus from our screens, but that doesn't mean that production has shut down.

It's been announced that Virgina Madsen has signed on for a recurring role.





According to deadline.com, the Oscar nominee will play Catherine Lewis, the widow of a US senator from Alaska who has taken over her late husbands post.

"A former powerhouse attorney, the Harvard graduate is determined to carry out her husband's legacy at any cost."

Lewis is described as a "major recurring" character, and the role was reportedly first offered to Connie Britton, of "Friday Night Lights", back in November.
