Look who ER dug up to celebrate its final season: Dr. Mark Greene, who
died of a brain tumor in Hawaii back in 2002. Original cast member
Anthony Edwards signed a deal Wednesday night to reprise his popular
character for the Nov. 13 episode of the long-running NBC drama.
Dearly departed Mark will not be spooking Linda Cardellini (of Scooby
Doo fame), but rather will be appearing in multiple flashback scenes
to give insight into the past of Angela Bassett's character.
In the episode, Bassett's Cate Banfield enters County General
Hospital's emergency room — but not in a doctor capacity. At her
bedside is Edwards, who collected numerous awards for playing one of
TV's all-time most compassionate docs.
Entitled "Heal Thyself," the episode is to shoot next week and was
written by ER executive producer David Zabel, who will also direct.
For its 15th and final season, the series hopes to bring back other
familiar vets for one last hurrah, including Noah Wyle, who will
return for four of the final episodes. — William Keck
