House is finally introducing us to the missing branch in Foreman’s family tree.
Sources confirm to me exclusively that Orlando Jones has been cast as Foreman’s estranged (and currently incarcerated) brother, Marcus.
Although we have previously met Foreman’s father and mother (played by Charles S. Dutton and Beverly Todd, respectively), his brother has only been mentioned in passing. Little is know about Marcus except that he, like Foreman, had a troubled childhood.
Jones’ episode, which has already been shot and is scheduled to air in February, finds the siblings reconnecting on the eve of Marcus’ parole hearing. Not surprisingly, House sticks his nose where it doesn’t belong, but the less I say about that piece of the story the better (my annual invite to David Shore and Katie Jacobs’ New Year’s Eve slumber party is already in danger of getting lost in the mail). Just trust me when I say his meddling leads to a pretty big development.
Great casting, don’tcha think?

I would watch Orlando Jones in anything, being is House just makes it a better treat
Bout Time Orlando Jones got more screen time! From The Replacements to Drumline, OJ needs his own show!
I so agree. He has such a range that he can be great in anything.
No – more movies please. I would not like to see him move to TV permanently.
Love him, but not ecstatic on another Foreman centric episde.
Anyways, Cuddy should leave. Her fans are annoying.
But whatever, it’s not like I watch.
Scrubs+Mercy+ER+Grey’s Anatomy = better than this show that is House MD. Seperately.
House is better than Scurbs+Mercy+GA+ER combined. The end.
LOL. Not. Agree with Lilac.
All the fangirls here have got to stfu on opinions.
Agreed.
Mercy is awful, Grey’s is a soap, ER isn’t even on tv anymore, and Scrubs used to be good.
[H]ouse is king of the medical drama.
Hamerons are still here spreading bitterness!
House used to be much better, Huddy makes it pretty soapish on the other hand. Speaking as a non-shipper who’d rather see House/Wilson or House/Cameron than any other pairing.
Huddy is Dead! Long live the Luddites! (j/k)
OMG, Hamerons will never go away! They are zombies.
If you don’t watch House what are you doing here?
Not that excited about another Foreman centric episode either. I’d prefer Cameron back and more House/original team! Or Blythe House! I’d love to see her again!
Lilac
your stupid
Wanna bet she’s a hameron?
Wanna bet your stupid? And I bet you don’t get how ridiculous you are. I bet you’re Huddy, right?
My stupid what? And no, considering how hamerons keep acting that was just pointing out the obvious.
Btw, I’m all for House and Stacy and I like Cuddy and Lucas together.
That’s awesome news! I love Orlando Jones!
Nice casting. Shows once again why House is the best show on TV and the most watched show in the world.
True!
Great casting, yes.
“…his meddling leads to a pretty big development” On House that always means someone is fired or quits. He we go again! Is it Foreman’s turn this time?
Not always. Sometimes it means House hallucinates.
Great! House is the best show ever
Uh oh.. Ausiello is in trouble!
Yawn.
I’m pretty excited about this episode. Foreman has always been among the top of my list, as long as he’s not paired with Thirteen.
Can’t wait. I’ve been curious about Foreman’s brother since S1.
Ok. I officially love Foreman’s family. Dutton, Todd … now Jones. Epic!
eh i’m not really familiar with this guy.
but a huge LOL at all the comments here.
