Three more cast additions have been made to the upcoming Piper Perabo featuring Covert Affairs from USA. THR is reporting that Kari Matchet, Eric Lively & Eion Bailey have joined the former Coyote Ugly star. We’ve previously reported that Anne Dudek and Christopher Gorham are also set to help kick-off the first season of the show.

Kari Matchett has been in several episodes of shows like 24, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, Heartland , and Invasion (not to mention some appearances in the awesome that was Wonderfalls). She will play a CIA agent who is Perabo’s boss in Covert Affairs. Lively will also play a CIA agent, and is named ‘Conrad Sheehan III’. Eion Bailey’s role was described in the report as ‘recurring’ and is noted as a mysterious ex-boyfriend of Perabo’s character. I remember him from Band of Brothers, but he won an Emmy for Life of the Party.

Matchett is my damn girl and is AMAZING in several episodes and roles in The Nero Wolfe Mysteries (which stars Timothy Hutton and Maury Chaykin).
