"New Girl" will be getting very crowded during an upcoming episode.
The Hollywood Reporter has learned that previous guest stars Jamie Lee Curtis, Rob Reiner, Angela Kinsey and Jessica Chaffin have all booked returns -- and Ben Falcone will be making his first appearance on the Fox comedy during the same episode.
'Birthday', which does not have a confirmed premiere date, will include birthday festivities for Jess (Zooey Deschanel) -- as the title implies.
It also marks the first time since the sophomore season's Thanksgiving episode that Curtis and Reiner have reunited in their roles as Jess' parents, Joan and Bob Day. (Reiner previously returned solo)
Falcone makes his "New Girl" debut as Mike. Described as a condescending, passive-aggressive bartender, he'll play a foil to Cece (Hannah Simone) in her new job.
Kinsey, who appeared earlier this season as Jess' new coworker, will also return -- as will Chaffin, whose first episode has yet to air.
