After a successful and well-received stint last season, Megan Fox is coming back to New Girl Season 6! The former Transformers actress had a major guest role last season as a potential new love interest for Nick (Jake Johnson) and possibly romantic rival of Jess (Zooey Deschanel).
The actress, who is currently pregnant with her third child with actor Brian Austin Green, will appear for an eight-episode major arc during the middle of New Girl Season 6, Entertainment Weekly reported. This is to give Fox time some space to shape up for her television comeback after she gives birth.
In the previous season, Megan Fox played Reagan, a confident temporary apartment-mate for Nick, Winston (Lamorne Morris) and Schmidt (Max Greenfield) who was also a friend of Cece (Hannah Simone). Nick went with her to New Orleans at the end of Season 5 to help her with her new job. It is expected that Fox will reprise the role for New Girl Season 6.
Get pumped with Winston and Reagan for #WorkoutWednesday. #NewGirl
