'Chuck' enters the matrix with Carrie-Anne Moss

carrie-anne-moss-gi.jpg"Chuck" has cast a love interest for Adam Baldwin's character, and she should be more than up to the task of keeping pace with John Casey.

"The Matrix" star Carrie-Anne Moss has signed on for a multi-episode run on the NBC series' final season, EW reports. She's the second big guest star to join Season 5 of the show; it was announced at Comic-Con that Mark Hamill will appear in the season premiere.

Moss will play a character named Gertrude Verbanski, who despite her ungainly name is a ruthlessly efficient spy. She runs a private firm that competes with Chuck (Zachary Levi) and Sarah's (Yvonne Strahovski) newly launched enterprise.

Gertrude also has a history with Casey, and though they've been professional rivals they have clicked personally. That sound you may have just heard is a bunch of "Chuck" fans squee-ing.

In addition to the "Matrix" trilogy, Moss' credits include "Memento," "Disturbia" and the upcoming "Silent Hill: Revelation." Earlier this year she starred in a Lifetime pilot called "Normal," but it didn't go forward.

"Chuck" begins its final season on NBC Friday, Oct. 21.

Um, the article is about CHUCK.

Excellent news! Adam fans have probably been waiting for this since John Casey showed his romantic side with Ilsa, Corina and [a tiny bit] with Kathleen.
