Lucy Liu to Join TNT’s ‘Southland’

Lucy Liu has appeared on the small screen as much as the big one of late, and it looks like that trend will continue.

The onetime Charlie’s Angel has landed a prominent role on season 4 of TNT’s cop drama Southland, alongside series regulars Michael Cudlitz, Shawn Hatosy, Regina King and Ben ‘Don’t Call Me Benjamin’ McKenzie.

The series has posted very solid viewer ratings for TNT ever since the network picked it up in 2009 from NBC, which dropped it. The series returns in January 2012.

Liu has recently been seen on shows such as Dirty Sexy Money and Cashmere Mafia, and heard in Kung Fu Panda 2.
