J.K. Simmons Heads to "Parks and Recreation"
Feb 4, 2013
by Natalie Abrams

J.K. Simmons has been tapped as Ben's replacement on "Parks and Recreation", Entertainment Weekly reports.

Calm down, Ben (Adam Scott) and Leslie (Amy Poehler) fans! Your favorite civic-minded couple isn't breaking up. "The Closer" alum won't be playing Ben, but instead will play the gruff mayor of Ben's hometown. If you recall, Ben previously held that position when he was just 18 years old before being impeached.

In the same episode, we'll meet Ben's sister (Annabeth Gish) when Ben and Leslie head to his hometown.

When I first read this I thought it said JK Rowling was going to guest star. Haha! But JK Simmons will be a great guest star.
