Janina Gavankar is joining Sleepy Hollow.

The former Mysteries of Laura star will guest star as Diana, a former military officer (and single mother) who works as a Special Agent for Homeland Security. Initially, she and Crane (Tom Mison) clash over a number of things: her lack of belief in the supernatural; and the way they approach assignments.

Unfortunately, the duo share one thing in common: Diana’s former partner died. Crane, is still reeling from his own loss, as Abbie (Nicole Beharie) sacrificed herself in the Sleepy Hollow Season 3 finale.

And Fox teases “the two of them will quickly realize they have another important point of connection—though not one anyone would expect at first.”
