Megan is currently filming the sequel to Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles. 

In a press release, the network revealed that Megan will star as “Raegan, a gorgeous, straight-shooting pharmaceutical sales rep who comes to town on business and shakes things up in the loft when she rents out Jess’ (Zooey Deschanel’s) room while she is sequestered on jury duty”.

Executive producer of the show, Liz Meriweather, joked: “It’s insane to me that such a gorgeous person can be so funny, but I guess we just all have to accept it.

“I’ve been a fan of her comedic skills since This Is 40, and I’m so excited to have her on the show. We had Megan in mind when we wrote this part – she’s the perfect person to come in and shake these guys up.”
