Official – Summer Glau joins Dollhouse season two!

Summer Glau is entering Joss Whedon’s Dollhouse, folks.

No, really.

She joins the show in episode 5 — airing in October — for two initial eps playing a character called Bennett, working inside the Dollhouse.

The news was confirmed to us by Fox.

    Dollhouse sucks and I can't believe they chose to renew this instead of Terminator where Summer really shines.

    I'll only watch the episodes she's in. Otherwise I wouldn't bother.

    How can you know "where Summer really shines" when you haven't even seen her performance in Dollhouse?

    Also, why are you on a Dollhouse site if you think the show sucks? Terminator is gone man, let it go.

    All the TSCC fans who are bitchin' at Dollhouse because it got renewed really don't do their show or their fandom any good. It looks pathetic and childish.

    Firefly, Terminator and now Dollhouse will be cancelled. Admit it ppl, she's bad luck.

  10. Kevin says:

    And Nathan cancelled Firefly, Drive and Castle! Oh wait.

  11. Jose Alberto says:

    Yeah!! One more reason to follow season 2 ^^

  12. Matt @ Exquisite Things says:

    Nice, after Epitaph One, I have full faith Season 2 will be deliver on the promise Dollhouse showed in the later half of seasons one. Also, recently watched the unaired pilot and I can't believe they pulled that for the utter dross that replaced it. That was quality, quality TV. Presented the show's entire premise in a believable and intriguing way.

    Anyhow, looking forward to more Dollhouse.

  13. Paul Freeman says:

    Not sure I agree with you about the unaired pilot Matt – It worked more as a good season recap, hitting all the major plot ark scenes, but I think there was just too much happening there for a normal viewing public to take in, and the spoon feed method of splitting it over a few episodes works better for the more casual TV viewer as an introduction to the show.

    Awwwwwwww, yes! :)

    Is that "airing in October" also confirmed by Fox?

  15. Kevin says:

    Yes, wiesengrund. Late October to be exact.

  16. wiesengrund says:

    Awesome, so we have a confirmed uninterrupted run at least until ep 5. That's very cool.

  17. almostred says:

    YEAH!!!!That's so SHINY!!!!!!!!!! Go Summer Go!

    Well, looks like I'll have to keep an eye out for this Bennet character. OT hadleyK's cutting a teaser trailer to be shown next week some time on His website for GMR as well.

  20. Snickering Corpses says:

    Personally, I was rooting for both Dollhouse and Terminator to make it. I liked both. I applaud Dollhouse for making it. I'm sorry Terminator didn't.

    The one thing I do see as a legitimate wonder after hearing about Epitaph One is whether having two shows with post-apocalyptic type content was part of the decision to can Terminator.

    maybe summer will carry over her terminator persona into the dollhouse series… wouldn't that be interesting? ^_^

    How does it look for Dollhouse's fandom then when Joss Whedon himself stated that if it had been up to him he would have canceled Dollhouse and renewed TSCC for another Season?

    That's never been interpreted as a diss of his own show or fandom, but as a respectful nod to one of his favorite shows. Two different things.

  24. Kevin says:

    Joss was a T:TSCC fan. So, ya know.

    And what about the really important factor, joss whedon discovered Summer when he was doing an angel episode where he needed a ballerina,that was her first tv role, then came firefly, which was her first main character… the ttscc fans should know better about it and show some gratitude to joss, if weren´t for his shows, probably she wouldn´t be on terminator after all

  26. Kevin says:

    In truth I don't think there's really need for ill feeling, and I'm sure it will pass when people see her in the show. It's a cool role. So I hope the Terminator fans tune in to check out Summer.

    It's is the Droppings of a Male Cow! (Or words to that effect.) I would prefer to see Summer in Terminator Season 3, not Dollhouse.

    Nice to see Vocker has grieved healthily and moved on then.

    Dollhouse SUCKS HARD. I don't know why Summer would stoop so low. Dollhouse is one of the worst shows to ever air on FOX. I'm glad it'll be pulled within the first 5 episodes.

      why are you on here if you hate the show!! it is cool and original, and differant!! please go to shows you like and leave us real fans who like good shows alone!!

  33. case says:

    Dollhouse started weakly but I can’t believe that people can’t even give him the benefit of a doubt that he’ll be able to improve the show and make it into something really good. He didn’t just fall off the back of a turnip truck .. he created Firefly and Serenity remember?

    Personally I still prefer River to Cameron, although I do think T:SCC was a good show.

    Face it. Joss Whedon + Summer Glau = WIN.

    i love sumer, i cannot wait to see her!!

  35. Alex says:

    I hope she does not smile on those episodes.
    Everytime she does, I fall down on my knees and I lose everything else that is happening.
