Scott Bakula to Play Chuck's Father

Posted on January 19, 2009

Scott Bakula is going to be guest starring on Chuck as Chuck Bartowski's Dad. This news follows reports that Chevy Chase will also have a guest starring role on the hit spy comedy.

Quantum Leap star Scott Bakula is slated to join Chuck as our protagonist's estranged father for a three-episode arc, creator Josh Schwartz tells EW's Ausiello.

"Chuck made a promise to his sister, Ellie [Sarah Lancaster], that he was going to find their dad in time for her wedding," Schwartz says. "And it's something that Chuck becomes consumed with pursuing during the second half of the season."

Scott Bakula sounds like a great addition to the cast.
