Showtime’s officially announced comedian Wanda Sykes will have a guest starring role on season five of House of Lies. According to the network’s announcement, Sykes will be playing Wanda, “a love interest for Jeremiah (Glynn Turman) who becomes a much-needed confidante for Marty (series star and executive producer Don Cheadle) as he looks to ascend from management mogul to global power player.”

Sykes will be seen in at least three episodes of season five. Filming’s expected to begin this month on the upcoming season.

Also signing up for guest starring roles are Ken Marino (Marry Me) and Nicky Whelan (Franklin & Bash). Marino will be playing Mark, a love interest for series star Kristen Bell. The two previously worked together on Veronica Mars. Whelan is set to guest star as Klare, “Marty’s raw food chef girlfriend.”
