Robertson will reunite with the creator of the former CW series, Liz Tigelaar, who exec produces the Hulu comedy.

Hulu's Casual is setting up a charming Life Unexpected reunion.

Britt Robertson has booked a big arc on the second season of Hulu's Golden Globe-nominated comedy Casual, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

Robertson starred for two seasons as Lux on The CW's gone-but-not-forgotten Life Unexpected. She will reunite with Liz Tigelaar, who created Life Unexpected and now serves as an executive producer on Jason Reitman's Casual.

"I am beyond thrilled that Britt has joined Casual for an arc this season," Tigelaar told THR. "She's an incredible talent, who's such a natural fit and perfect in the role, and, sentimentally, it's so much fun to be working together again. And I promised her, no crying or beanies this time around." 

Robertson will recur as Fallon, Jordon's (Mad Men's Vincent Kartheiser) assistant, who is smart, sarcastic and has an agenda of her own.

The actress, who recently starred on the big screen in Tomorrowland, is repped by Innovative Artists. She joins a roster of season two guest stars that also includes Britt Lower.
