Hilarie Burton is set to guest-star on Castle at midseason, and the actress tells me the gig has her excited for multiple reasons — one being that she is “definitely a fan” of ABC’s Monday-night cop drama.

Burton also points out that her Castle episode will play host to a One Tree Hill reunion of sorts, seeing as Tom Wright — who directed several episodes of the CW sudser — will be calling the shots as she plays Kay Cappuccio, a Kardashian-like reality star who is famous for… well, no discernible reason.

“He is one of my favorite One Tree Hill directors, so I’m really looking forward to working with him again,” Burton effuses. “And this time playing someone so radically different!”

Burton, who is in the middle of filming Season 3.5 of USA Network’s White Collar, will shoot her Castle appearance in December, to air in early 2012.

"Castle" Features Hilarie Burton as a Kardashian-Inspired Character On 'An Embarrassment of Bitches'
1/23/12


Should we start calling it "Kastle"?

"ET" visited the set of "Castle" to talk with its People's Choice-winning star Nathan Fillion and former "One Tree Hill" actress Hilarie Burton about the Jan. 23 episode entitled, 'An Embarrassment of Bitches'.



On the episode, Burton plays Kay Cappuccio, a reality TV character inspired by the infamous Kim Kardashian.

"I'm the one guy who lives in a cave and doesn't actually follow the Kardashians," Fillion admitted to "ET". But, he added, "I think they're lovely people … We're not trying to hurt anybody's feelings."

Burton told "ET" that she's excited to step out of her typical role. "I don't think I've ever played a 'hot chick' before," she explained. "I always play the quirky friend or the really angry girl."
