Scott Foley is donning his scrubs once more. The actor is set to reprise the role of Sean Kelly in the second season of ABC’s “Scrubs” revival, bringing back a character whose history with Elliot Reid remains a fan favorite storyline.
Scott Foley is heading back to Sacred Heart. The actor will reprise his role as Sean Kelly in the second season of ABC’s “Scrubs” revival, a return that was announced today during D23’s “Scrubs: Scrubbing Back” panel. Foley moderated the panel, which also featured series stars and executive producers, including Zach Braff, who plays John Dorian.
Sean Kelly was a recurring character in the original series, a military doctor whose complicated romantic history with Elliot Reid became a memorable storyline. The upcoming season is expected to revisit a classic narrative connected to Kelly, according to the panel, though specific plot details were not disclosed.
The character is perhaps best remembered for the “Nobody cares, Sean” line, a running joke that has long been a favorite among fans of the medical comedy. With Foley’s return, the revival continues to bring back familiar faces from the original run.
With Foley back in the fold, the “Scrubs” revival gains another link to its past as it heads into season two on ABC.
