The actress who appeared in nearly 20 episodes of Supernatural from 2010 to 2020 is set to feature in a recurring guest star role. Rhodes will play Carrie, a rep for a large restaurant investment group that’s looking to invest in Harmony Dumplings, the restaurant run by heroine Nicky’s (Olivia Liang) family. Episode 2 will mark the beginning of the star’s arc as Carrie.

Kung Fu returns for its third season beginning Wednesday, October 5 and opens with Nicky, her family, and her community attempting to rebuild in more ways than one. While Nicky is reeling from a breakup with Henry (Eddie Liu), and the shocking death of her nemesis-turned-ally Zhilan (Yvonne Chapman), she puts on a brave face as she juggles a job teaching kung fu at the same time that she’s fighting a growing crimewave in San Francisco.
