07.17 | 'Jerry Maguire' and 'Ray' star to play President Palmer's sister?

I've never seen 'Jerry Maguire' or 'Ray', but apparently Regina King was in both of them.

Regina King, best known for her work in such features as 'Jerry Maguire' and 'Ray', has joined Fox's drama '24' as a regular for next season.

Additionally, D.B. Woodside is taking on a bigger role. Woodside plays Wayne Palmer, the strong-willed brother and former chief of staff of the late President David Palmer, played by Dennis Haysbert. On the show's upcoming sixth season, he will be elected president.

King will play his sister, a powerful advocacy lawyer.

This latest casting news seems to bring credence to the 'President Wayne Palmer' rumours.

This news is being cited as an official Fox press release now:

"The cast of one of the most popular and Emmy-nominated shows on television, 24, has just gotten a little bigger with FOX announcing that two new actors have joined the show as regular cast members - Regina King and D. B. Woodside. As FOX announced in their press release, 'After last season’s shocking assassination of beloved President Palmer (Dennis Haysbert), the Palmer Family now comes together with the addition of King as Palmer’s sister 'Angela,' a powerful advocacy lawyer, and the return of Palmer’s strong-minded brother 'Wayne' (Woodside) as the recently elected President.'"
