Like father, like daughter: Linda Powell, the daughter of General Colin Powell, will guest star in the sixth season premiere of "Madam Secretary", EW has learned exclusively.

Powell will play an FBI director in the episode. She follows in the footsteps of her father, who appeared in a 2018 episode of the CBS drama alongside Hillary Clinton and Madeleine Albright.




“We love Linda and think she brings a strong sense of authenticity and authority to the role of FBI director,” executive producer Barbara Hall tells EW.

“She was cast by producers through the regular audition process. We were later told by our casting director [Mark Saks] that her father is Colin Powell. So we’re thrilled to have had two members of the Powell family on our show.”
