Season 3 of Damages will be premiering on January 25, 2010 and several new cast members will be joining the cast (see when your other favorite shows will be returning in 2010). FX has released several photos in anticipation of the season 3 premiere. Damages is a great, dramatic show with solid performances, even if the quality did dip a bit in season 2. If you don’t watch it, you still have time to catch up on seasons 1 and 2, before season 3 premieres.

Check out the cast photos below. It’s all very dark and mysterious.

Campbell Scott and Martin Short Sign On as Series Regulars and Lily Tomlin and Keith Carradine Take on Guest Starring Roles

FX’s award-winning legal thriller Damages is adding four superior actors to its cast with Campbell Scott and Martin Short signing on as series regulars, and Lily Tomlin and Keith Carradine joining as special guest stars for the upcoming season premiering in January.

For the second consecutive year, Damages received seven Emmy Award nominations and Glenn Close won the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series.

Scott, Short, Tomlin and Carradine join returning stars Close, Rose Byrne and Tate Donovan. Close, who won her second consecutive Emmy for Lead Actress in a Drama for her portrayal of ruthless attorney “Patty Hewes,” became the first back-to-back winner in that category since Kathy Baker won for Pickett Fences in 1995-96. Byrne received her first Emmy nomination this year for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for her performance as “Ellen Parsons,” Patty’s protégé.

Scott starred in multiple episodes of Royal Pains, and his notable film credits include The Secret Lives of Dentists, Big Night and Dying Young.

Short joins the cast as a two-time Emmy nominee for his performance in Primetime Glick and his supporting role in Merlin. He is also known for his roles in Father of the Bride, Three Amigos! and countless appearances on Saturday Night Live.

Tomlin is a multiple Emmy Award winner and Academy Award^® nominee. She has played roles on award-winning hit series Desperate Housewives, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, The West Wing, Will & Grace and The X-Files.
