Friday August 24, 2018

The upcoming season of "Will & Grace" just got an extra dose of hunk.

People magazine is reporting that out actor Matt Bomer and out Olympic figure skater Adam Rippon will appear in guest roles for the new season of the reboot NBC comedy.

Bomer, 40, will play a "smooth-talking, self-satisfied TV news anchor" and will be a love interest for Will (Eric McCormick). Though it's unclear what Rippon's role will be, Bomer took to Instagram to share a photo of himself with the athlete on the set of "Will & Grace." He added text to the pic that reads, "Just hanging out with @adamrippon nbd (no big deal)."

Rippon, too, shared a selfie with Bomer to his Instagram Stories. "Am I a talented actor now?" he asks in the pic.

Bomer and Rippon aren't the only stars appearing on the new "Will & Grace" season. Minnie Driver will reprise her role as Lorraine Finster, the nemesis of Karen (Megan Mullally). David Schwimmer, Alec Baldwin, Chelsea Handler, Jon Cryer, and Mary McCormack will all guest star as well.
