Craig Robinson is Brooklyn-bound. The actor-comedian who starred on "The Office" and in This Is the End will guest in an upcoming episode of "Brooklyn Nine-Nine", EW has learned.

He will play Doug Judy, a small-time criminal who may be integral to a case that Jake (Andy Samberg) has been investigating for many years.

Craig Robinson Will Return to "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" as Pontiac Bandit

It appears that the Pontiac Bandit will soon commit more theft — of the scene-stealing variety. Craig Robinson will reprise his role as the likeable car thief on Fox’s cop comedy "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" this season, EW has learned exclusively.

In the Christmas episode, which is slated to air in early to mid-December, Jake (Andy Samberg) reluctantly joins forces with the charming criminal he’d been pursuing for years (and who slipped away at the end of an episode last season) in order to take down a drug kingpin.



“The Pontiac Bandit once again comes into Jake’s life, and once again is his best criminal friend and his greatest nemesis,” says "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" executive producer Dan Goor.

He added: “He must work intimately with the Pontiac Bandit — the two of them eat Lobster Thermidor while wearing bathrobes.”

Craig Robinson, a.k.a. The Pontiac Bandit, To Return on "Brooklyn Nine-Nine"

A few weeks ago, news broke that the fall finale of Brooklyn Nine-Nine will include a guest spot from former Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch.

Turns out, it will also feature an appearance by someone else who is pretty good on the run.





Craig Robinson – better known as Doug Judy, the elusive car thief who is even better known as the Pontiac Bandit – will make his now-annual return to Fox’s cop comedy, EW has learned exclusively.

In the two-part finale, which airs at 8:30 p.m. p.m. ET/PT on Jan. 1, a handful of inmates, including a murderer, escape from a prison van after it crashes. When Jake (Andy Samberg) and Amy (Melisssa Fumero) make a bet to see which of them can round up the most prisoners, the Pontiac Bandit appears to be the one person who can assist Jake in his manhunt.



Although Jake secretly looks forward to reteaming with the charming criminal who’s a fan favorite, Captain Holt (Andre Braugher) does not think this reunion is such a hot idea.

Judy was last seen cruising away on a speedboat and evading arrest by Jake and Amy in season 3. He also (dis)appeared in seasons 1 and 2.
