Say hello to Simone Clark!

Niecy Nash is set to play the character in the Rookie‘s potentially new spinoff show. The actress, who just wrapped up her final season in the drama/comedy series Claws, will be introduced by the FBI Academy in a two-episode backdoor pilot during The Rookie‘s current fourth season.

Clark is described as “a force of nature, the living embodiment of a dream deferred — and the oldest rookie in the FBI Academy,” per the network’s description.

“I’m so excited to guest star on The Rookie and bring Simone Clark to life,” Nash said. “She is a spirited and spicy fish out of water. The cast is amazing and I can’t wait to play.”

Nash will guest star in the episodes as Simone Clark, described as a force of nature, the living embodiment of a dream deferred – and the oldest rookie in the FBI Academy. She is a single mother of two who put her dreams on hold to make sure her kids pursued their own.

Other notable TV roles and movies include Reno 911!, Never Have I Ever, When They See Us, which also landed her an NAACP Image Award, Q-Force, Mrs. America, The Soul Man, Getting On, Guess Who, Not Easily Broken, Selma, and Stolen By My Mother: The Kamiyah Mobley Story just to name a few.

The Rookie airs Sundays at 10 p.m.
