Isaiah Washington has been booked for a guest-starring role on A&E's
The Cleaner, which premieres this Tuesday at 10 pm/ET. Though details were few at first, I have since uncovered lots more on how the
Grey's Anatomy alum will fit into the episode.
In "The 11th Hour," Washington will play a traditional, well-schooled interventionist who crosses swords with Benjamin Bratt's title character - a recovered addict who has his own "unconventional" ways of helping others - when they both attempt to treat the same girl.
Since parting ways with ABC's
Grey's Anatomy, Washington's only TV appearance has come in the form of a mini-run on NBC's short-lived
Bionic Woman. (Well, that and as a newspaper clipping on the Seattle Grace bulletin board. But
let's not go there.) He also has done the occasional indie.
Other guest-stars on
The Cleaner will include Tate Donovan (
Damages), Annabeth Gish (
Brotherhood), Kathy Baker and Eric Roberts. -
