Lara Flynn Boyle will return to series television when she joins the cast of the NBC drama "Las Vegas" this fall.

Flynn Boyle, who played Assistant District Attorney Helen Gamble on "The Practice" (1997-2003), will portray the flamboyant new owner of the Montecito Resort & Casino.

"Obviously, we're excited to have someone with the style and panache of Lara Flynn Boyle as we head into a season of transition for `Las Vegas,'" Gary Scott Thompson, the series' creator and executive producer, said in a recent statement.


I haven't watched "Las Vegas" at all, but Flynn Boyle may change that. My favorite was her performance as a femme fatale in John Dahl's Red Rock West (1992).
