Nia Long to guest star on Boston Legal for three episodes


Nia Long has been tapped to guest star in three episodes of Boston Legal this season. She will play Vanessa Walker, a disciplined, ambitious, micro-managing new associate from the New York office of Crane Poole & Schmidt. She will arrive in Boston to solicit Alan Shores help.

Fans will remember Nia in Big Momma’s House and Are We There Yet.

Boston Legal stars James Spader as Alan Shore, Julie Bowen as Denise Bauer, Mark Valley as Brad Chase, Rene Auberjonois as Paul Lewiston and Craig Bierko as Jeffrey Coho, Constance Zimmer as Claire Simms, with Candice Bergen as Shirley Schmidt and William Shatner as Denny Crane.

And is it just me, or does that sound like a potential set-up for a spin-off?

No word on airdates yet.
