The former Charlie´s angel is now the mother of Charlie´s angel. (yeah, you know what I mean.) Cheryl Ladd has been chosen! It has just been announced that Cheryl will portray Sarah’s momma in this season of Chuck, proving once again that Chucksters know how to arm-chair cast. Nice call!
Show of hands: how many of you called this one?
“Chuck” has been loading up on the nerd-bait casting for the spy comedy’s fifth and final season. Guest stars already announced for the new season, set to debut on Friday, October 21, include Mark Hamill, Carrie-Anne Moss and “Community” star Danny Pudi.
To that list we can now add perhaps the most Comic Con-friendly guest star of all time: Stan Lee, legendary co-creator of Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four and almost every other iconic Marvel Comics character (including most of the roster of Joss Whedon’s “Avengers” film).
Lee will appear in the fifth season’s seventh episode where, according to the info I have, “Chuck encounters Stan Lee in the most unexpected of places,” a setting that might suggest The Man has “a secret identity of his own.”
“Chuck” co-creator Chris Fedak said, “To say we’re excited to have Stan Lee join us on the show is an understatement. His iconic characters and the epic worlds he imagined have been inspirations to all of us working on ‘Chuck.’”
Lee has played himself in many movies and TV shows over the years, and has never been afraid to ham it up – which should make him fit in just fine as a “Chuck” guest.

Question: Alright this is my first time actually asking for a scoop even though I’ve been reading your scoops for a long time and I can’t get enough of them so I would like to ask for a scoop on Chuck because I just watched the Season 5 promo and I’m going crazy especially with the ending where they say he’s important and that’s why he needs to fail. Do you have anything for me? —Kayla
Ausiello: Aside from a Xanax and a Chardonnay smoothie? Um, let’s see… we’re going to meet Sarah’s former handler this season, and here’s what I can tell you about him: He’s in his early 40s, stoic, and answers to the name Ryker. Speaking of Sarah, did you see this?

Last year, Chuck introduced us to its title spy’s mom, Linda Hamilton. And this year? For its final season, the show is introducing Sarah’s mom, Emma. The possibly recurring character is described as a beautiful blonde who is, in essence, a walking hug. Our suggestions to play the part:
* Carrie Fisher: Not only does her Star Wars bro, Mark Hamill, guest in this season’s opener — making her casting an almost-reunion — the erstwhile Princess Leia just dropped a ton of weight. And what’s the old saying? If you lost it, flaunt it!
* Rene Russo: Check out these credentials, would ya? A past in crimefighting? Check. (Lethal Weapon 4.) An aptitude for espionage? Check. (The Thomas Crown Affair.) A sense of humor? Check. (The Adventures of Rocky & Bullwinkle.) An innate huggability? Um… Okay, on second thought…
* Cheryl Ladd: It’s been decades since this former Charlie’s Angel donned her halo, but in addition to still looking like a million bucks, the actress — who next appears on NCIS — has maintained exactly the air of sweetness that this role requires.
* Sigourney Weaver: With movie stars like Glenn Close and Laura Dern now turning to TV, is it out of the question to think that the Alien ass-kicker might, too? Especially for a one-season deal? (If it is out of the question, please don’t spoil the dream for us, okay?)
* Lynda Carter: OK, Chucksters, you didn’t listen when we suggested the onetime Wonder Woman to play your leading man’s mom. So how about your leading lady’s? Do you need a reminder that she looks great with fair hair, too?

Question: Since you are almost as big a fan of Chuck as I am, I need to know: What is your degree of confidence that the season finale can also serve as a satisfying series finale if NBC does the unthinkable and unforgivable? —Jeff
Ausiello: To be honest, my confidence level was pretty low. But then I spoke to exec producer Chris Fedak and it shot through the freakin’ roof. Despite the finale being titled “Chuck vs. the Cliffhanger,” Fedak assured me that the episode features “some fantastic resolution to a number of the stories that we set up this season.” But as has become something of a Chuck tradition, the final scene features a “cliffhanger component that launches us very much into [a possible] Season 5,” Fedak adds. What would such a season look like? “There were a number of stories that we’ve always wanted to do – even from Season 1 – involving who Chuck is as a person and as a hero. So [Season 5] would be an extension of that.”
Question: In last week’s AA you mentioned that the Chuck season finale broke the bank, budget-wise. Care to elaborate? Do you know what was so expensive? —Jeremy
Ausiello: The mother of all action sequences, according to Fedak. “It’s set in the desert and includes a super motorcycle, lots of special effects and a truck getting blown off the road,” he says. “It has an element of Duel, which is Steven Spielberg’s first movie. There’s also an element of Road Warrior… and an ode to the television show Street Hawk, which I watched as a kid.”

Question: Any clue as to who (or even what) Agent X is on Chuck? —Chris
Ausiello: It’s someone we know. Howa can I be sure? ‘Cause exec producer Chris Fedak told me so! Fedak also revealed that the Season 4 finale (airing May 16) is both “epic” and one of “the most expensive episodes.” The last scene also sets up a doozy of a fifth season. Now all we need is that pesky pickup from NBC!
