The halls of Chastain Park Memorial are chilly, and it’s not because of Atlanta’s winter weather. As seen in TVLine’s exclusive sneak peek at tonight’s The Resident (Fox, 8/7c), the frosty atmosphere arrives at the same time that Gotham vet Jessica Lucas does. During the episode, titled “Requiems & Revivals,” Lucas makes her debut as Billie, a close friend and former Chastain colleague of Nic’s who returns to the hospital to support Nic after last week’s harrowing stabbing.

The Resident is adding to its cast for its fourth season. Jessica Lucas, from Gotham, is joining Matt Czuchry, Bruce Greenwood, Manish Dayal, Emily VanCamp, Shaunette Renée Wilson, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Jane Leeves, and Morris Chestnut on the medical drama. The FOX series follows the staff of Chastain Memorial Hospital. Deadline...

The Gotham alum will become a series regular on the Fox medical drama, playing a top neurosurgery resident at Chastain who was cut after a tragic error and left under a cloud.
