Carrie Preston is returning to Person of Interest for its fifth season.

TV Insider reports the True Blood alum will be appearing in multiple episodes, including the season premiere. Preston also said she would appear in “an episode near the end.”


Preston plays the role of Harold Finch’s ex-fiancée Grace, who has guest-starred in various past episodes of Person of Interest.

CBS renewed Person of Interest for a truncated 13-episode season, but hadn’t decided if would end with Season 5.

Last week at the TCA (Television Critics Association), Person of Interest executive producer J. J. Abrams told he thought it would be the show's final season. A few days later, CBS president Glenn Geller told he didn’t know if it would indeed be the final season, stating, “It hasn’t aired yet.”

Person of Interest: Season 5 is expected to air sometime this Spring.
