The ever-changing cast of “ER” will add yet another new face later this fall.
Eion Bailey (“And Starring Pancho Villa as Himself”) will have a recurring role on the long-running drama, playing a med student assigned to County General. He’ll also catch the eye of nurse-turned-doctor Abby Lockhart (Maura Tierney).

Now in its 11th season, “ER” has undergone a near-total turnover in its principal cast over the years. Only Noah Wyle has been with the show its entire run. This season has seen the addition of Shane West as a regular, while Alex Kingston, who plays Dr. Elizabeth Corday, is on her way out.
Bailey played film producer Frank Thayer in HBO’s “Pancho Villa.” He also had a role in the pay-cable network’s World War II epic “Band of Brothers.”
His feature-film credits include “Fight Club,” “Almost Famous”–in which he played Rolling Stone editor Jann Wenner–and “Center Stage.” On television, he starred opposite Jennifer Garner in the short-lived 1998 Fox series “Significant Others.”
