Men at Work Exclusive: J.K. Simmons Returns to Face Off Against John Michael Higgins

J.K. Simmons, John Michael Higgins

Men at Work's boss is back, and this time, it's for good.

The Closer's J.K. Simmons, who first appeared last season as the intimidating owner/publisher of Full Steam magazine and Amy's dad P.J. Jordan, will return in a recurring role in Season 2, TVGuide.com has learned exclusively.

Exclusive first look: Bones' Joel David Moore joins Men at Work

This upcoming season will see Simmons go head-to-head with John Michael Higgins (Best in Show, Happily Divorced), who has been cast as P.J.'s nemesis, Lindsey Tucker. Lindsey is the owner of a rival magazine, Icon, which constantly tops Full Steam for all the awards, but P.J. gets his revenge by stealing one of Lindsey's most prized possessions.

In addition to Simmons, Season 2 will also see the return of Bones alum Joel David Moore as Doug, another editor at Full Steam.

Men at Work is currently shooting its second season, which is set to air next year on TBS.

Are you excited to see Simmons square off against Higgins? Who do you think will come out on top?
