Cast and Crew: The second season will have Jennifer Love Hewitt replacing Connie Britton as the 911 operator. In the last season, Briton's character exited the country in order to fulfil her mother's last wish.
However, Fox chairman and CEO Gary Newman told reporters at the recent Television Critics Association summer press tour that Briton is welcome anytime to the show—providing hope for fans.
"If Connie expressed interest and had time sometime in the future, I know Ryan would be thrilled to bring her back to the show and use her again and hopefully they'll be some opportunities to do that," Newman was quoted by TV Guide.
The rest of the cast includes Angela Bassett, Peter Krause, Oliver Stark, Aisha Hinds, Kenneth Choi, and Rockmond Dunbar. The show is produced by Ryan Murphy alongside Brad Falchuck and Tim Minear.
