Fred Armisen, Ally Maki and Stephen Rannazzisi to Guest Star on "New Girl"

Fox's "New Girl" has new roommates coming!

With Damon Wayans Jr. leaving the comedy series for its fifth season, New Girl has recruited Ally Maki, Fred Armisen and Stephen Rannazzisi to guest-star, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. 

In one of the episodes set to air next season, former Saturday Night Live cast member Fred will portray the role of a boarder when Schmidt (played by Max Greenfield) and Nick (Jake Johnson) puts the loft up for rent on the lodging website, Airbnb. The League star Stephen will play Nick and Schmidt's old college frenemy while Step Up's Ally Maki is set as a girl who decides to rent Nick's room.

The casting comes just after New Girl has finished filming and production on their fourth season. The whole cast and crew are reportedly already working on their fifth season in an attempt to accommodate lead star Zooey Deschanel's pregnancy. The new recruits join Anna George who was previously announced to play the mother of Cece (played by Hannah Simone). 

A new New Girl episode-co-written by one of the show's stars Lamorne Morris-will air on Tuesday 9 p.m.

Fred is represented by Brillstein Entertainment and WME; Stephen is repped by Brillstein Entertainment, Jackoway Tyerman and UTA; while Ally is with Sweeney Entertainment and Abrams Artists.
