She'll be joined by"Newsies" star Jeremy Jordan, Jennifer Hudson and Andy Mientus. Jordan's character, a singer, and Mientus' character, an aspiring Broadway writer, will be roommates. Meanwhile, Hudson will be playing Veronica Moore, a Broadway veteran who impacts the lives of Karen and Ivy (Megan Hilty).

According to TVLine, Leslie Odom Jr., who recurred during Season 1 of the series as Sam, Tom's (Christian Borle) boyfriend and a member of the "Bombshell" ensemble,will also be a series regular this season.

"Smash" Season 2 will also see the departures of Jaime Cepero (Ellis), Raza Jaffrey (Dev), Will Chase (Michael Swift) and Brian d'Arcy James (Frank), who will not return as series regulars. However, D'Arcy James confirmed he'll return for at least one episode. There will be a new musical in town too and some "Bombshell" players may start defecting.
