New Girl: Megan Fox Is Basically Taking Over For Zooey Deschanel For a While

New mom Zooey Deschanel is on maternity leave from New Girl, and though the show isn't premiering until midseason, the creators have brought in a fresh face in her absence. Megan Fox will appear in a recurring role on the fifth season of the Fox comedy. She'll be playing Reagan, a pharmaceutical sales rep who "comes to town on business and shakes things up." She'll be renting Jess's room in the loft, so it's only a matter of time until the boys start drooling. In fact, Max Greenfield has already tweeted about the news: "This has been on my vision board since the pilot! #NewGirl #thesecretworks."
