After we saw Dr. Chase get fired and Dr. Foreman and Dr. Cameron resigning last season, just who is going to come to take their place? Add Olivia Wilde, Kal Penn, Peter Jacobson, and Anne Dudek to the mix (you can see their photos below). They have signed on as recurring roles on “House”. They will all play characters who have been brought in to take their place.

Olivia Wilde will play a doctor called Thirteen (okay, weird), and she will be working closely with House in the upcoming season. She has most recently been seen on “Black Donnellys” and also appeared on “The O.C.“.

Kal Penn co-starred in the hilarious movie “Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle” and also had a role on “24“.

Peter Jacobson can currently be seen in the movie “Transformers” and has been on the recent USA Network show, “The Starter Wife“.

Anne Dudek has appeared in ABC’s “Big Day“, and also had a recurring role on “Bones“. What I remember her mostly is from “White Chicks“, where she played socialite Tiffany Wilson.



It should prove to be an interesting season opener!
