PopUps: Taylor Lautner Joins 'Scream Queens' Season 2 Cast

Friday June 24, 2016

Hollywood hunk Taylor Lautner is the latest addition to the second season of Ryan Murphy's comedy-horror series "Scream Queens," Entertainment Weekly reports.

In the second installment of "Scream Queens," the Fox show will be set in a hospital owned by Jamie Lee Curtis's character Cathy Munsch. Emma Roberts, Abigail Breslin and Bille Lourd, a.k.a. The Chanels, are hospital workers with Hester (Lea Michele) and Zayday (Keke Palmer).

Lautner, who said on Instagram that he's "thrilled" to join the show, will play Dr. Cassidy Cascade, who has been linked to Lourd's character. The "Twilight" star's doc suffers from a strange medical condition and is one of the suspects, following a wave of tragedies in the hospital, EW writes.

In addition to Lautner, John Stamos was recently revealed to be party of the "Scream Queens" cast. He will be playing surgeon Dr. Brock Holt.

"Scream Queens" will return to Fox Sept. 20 at 9 p.m. on Fox.
