Jennifer Love Hewitt joins Criminal Minds as undercover FBI agent Kate Callahan for season 10, which premieres on Wednesday night.
“I loved being on CBS for Ghost Whisperer, I’ve been waiting for a very long time to get back here,” she said in an interview on the show’s website.
“Super happy to be back as part of the family, and Criminal Minds is awesome. I get to play a badass.”
Callahan comes with “a pretty good resume behind her,” including eight years in another division.
“She’s very scrappy, she really enjoys getting the bad guys off the street, that’s her thing.”
“She takes pride in it, and joy in it, and really does it with a lot of humor, and feistiness,” she added.
