'Fast Times At Ridgemont High' Actress Jennifer Jason Leigh Joins 'Revenge' Cast

"Fast Times At Ridgemont High" star Jennifer Jason Leigh
Award-winning actress Jennifer Jason Leigh, best known for her role in the 1982 comedy film "Fast Times At Ridgemont High," will be joining the cast of the hit TV series "Revenge" for its second season.

Leigh, 50, is set to portray the role of Kara Wilkins, mother of  Emily Thorne (the main character played by Emily VanCamp).

"What you're going to discover about the woman who was Emily's mother is the circumstances under which they were separated, and you're going to find that there's some deep psychological issues with her, which I think is going to be fun for us to explore," show creator Mike Kelley previously told EW.com.

"For Emily," he said, "she's going to start seeing some of the psychological damage that her mother has in herself."

"Revenge" returns on ABC this September.

Below will be the plot of "Revenge" Season 2 according to Wikipedia:

"The season opens with a flash forward to a wedding, to Emily’s wedding, with the groom obviously mysterious.

Discoveries will be made about the woman who is Emily’s mother being the circumstances under which they were separated and that she has some deep seeded psychological issues. For Emily, she’s going to start seeing some of the psychological damage that her mother has in herself which obviously leads to a lot of soul-searching about who she is, what part DNA has played in her life choices and how she’s going to move forward, whether or not this person is going to be part of her life or if this is going to be someone that is going to disappoint and hurt her.

Although one would think that it doesn’t get much darker than jail time, Daniel is going to do his best to continue down that path in Season 2 though he will fall short of becoming a full-blown Grayson."
