After Brilliant Minds Fall Finale, we have news about the new batch of episodes! According to Deadline, Sarah Steele will be joining the show as a recurring guest star. Do you want to know more? Keep reading!
According to the report, Steele will first appear in Season 2, Episode 11, titled “The Boy Who Feels Everything.” That episode will air on Monday, January 5. Steele will play Sofia, “a new patient suffering from a medical mystery that Wolf (Zachary Quinto) struggles to crack.” According to the character description, Sofia is “a bit brazen, and becomes fast friends with Wolf after a run-in in the unlikeliest of places.”
And we’re excited! We loved her since The Good Wife, and Sofia seems like an interesting character. Plus, we’re happy that Oliver Oliver is stepping out of his comfort zone and forming bonds with someone outside his usual circle. That’s character growth. Lately, Oliver has shown his growth in many ways, and this is just one more.
That said, we’re a little worried that Sofia might overshadow Carol as Oliver’s friend. We still need these two up to their usual antics! But if there’s one show that can balance things out, it’s Brilliant Minds.
Brilliant Minds Season 2 airs on Mondays at 10 pm ET on NBC.
Carol will ALWAYS be Wolf’s closest friend.
