There’s going to be a mini-West Wing reunion next season on USA’s In Plain Sight.

Bradley Whitford will guest star on the series, joining his fellow former White House adviser Mary McCormack.

Of course, McCormack stars on the show as a U.S. Marshal working in the highly secretive branch of the witness protection program. Next season, Whitford will play a career military man who is a star witness for a Blackwater-style military contract company.

Whitford won’t be the first of McCormack’s West Wing alums to have appeared on the show — Richard Schiff and Josh Malina have been in previous episodes. USA will debut season four sometime this spring.

    They need MORE West Wing-ers! These mini reunions are always fun! I really enjoy Josh Malina’s character and think it’s funny he’s her sister’s romantic interest when he was hers in WW!

    YAY that’s great! I love In Plain Sight, and I love Brad, so this is amazing news :) But you forgot Allison Janney, shame on you! And Josh Malina has not only been in previous episodes, he’s still there in season 4 :D
