LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Two more actors are joining "Boston Legal" as regulars when ABC's Emmy-nominated drama returns for its second season in the fall.
Ryan Michelle Bathe and Justin Mentell will play junior associates in the law firm at the center of the David E. Kelley series, which likely will have its second-season premiere at the end of September.
Bathe will portray Sara Holt, a brilliant woman who is sometimes given bizarre assignments. The actress' TV credits include appearances on NBC's "ER" and UPN's "Girlfriends" and "Half & Half."
Mentell will take the role of Garrett Wells, an ambitious young lawyer who sometimes doesn't know when to back off. His credits include Fox Searchlight Pictures' upcoming film "Roll Bounce."
Julie Bowen (NBC's "Ed") was previously announced as an addition to the cast. She'll play Denise Bauer, a tough, smart senior associate who is on the track to making partner and won't let anything -- including a messy divorce -- stand in her way.
