Brothers & Sisters: The First Season Four Trailer

Season four of Brothers & Sisters kicks off on Sunday night, September 27.

As previous reports and spoilers have stated, viewers can expect the following developments to take place early on this fall:

• Kitty discovers her health is in jeopardy;
  
• Justin heads to medical school;
  
• Nora and Holly get into it over an engagement party for their children.
  

No written preview of the new season can reveal as much as an official ABC trailer, however. Check out the latest promo below, which is conveniently translated into Spanish for some of our readers:

‘Brothers & Sisters’ star expecting baby

Brothers & Sisters star Sarah Jane Morris has announced that she is pregnant with her first child.

The actress, who plays Julia Walker in the ABC drama, confirmed to People that she is expecting a baby with husband Ned Brower early next year.

Morris met Brower, the drummer for rock band Rooney, while they were both students at the Southern Methodist University in Dallas. They married in 2005.

The star has yet to confirm whether her character will be returning to Brothers & Sisters next season.

Joe Morton Joining ‘Brothers & Sisters’

A new season for
Brothers & Sisters means new cast members, and one of them is stage star Joe Morton.  The veteran actor will be getting a recurring role on the fourth installment of the hit ABC show, which could mean an exciting storyline for the Walkers.

The Hollywood Reporter confirmed that Morton’s role will be major, as he’ll be portraying a tough professor mentoring Justin Walker (Dave Annable).  The newcomer will be teaching anatomy in medical school, trying his best to nurture the skills of the struggling Justin.

There’s plenty more to look forward to on the upcoming season of Brothers & Sisters, as E! News reports.  Joe Morton’s character will make it difficult for Justin to skate through his studies, even though he has all the medical training he’s experienced.  We’ll get to see the youngest child of Nora and William Walker grow up, focusing on his hopes of becoming a doctor.

As for the other Walkers, there’s Kevin (Matthew Rhys) and Scotty (Luke Macfarlane) hoping to have babies of their own.  They’re not exactly sure which method to use yet, but they’re more worried over how much they have to spend.

The new season also brings back the unwelcome grandma Ida, the loathe-worthy matriarch of Nora (Sally Field) and Saul (Ron Rifkin).  There’s definitely more torture in store for her children.

Joe Morton will surely fit in well with the cast of Brothers & Sisters, where he’ll appear for 7-10 episodes.  He made his Broadway debut in Hair, and was even nominated for a Tony Award due to his performance in Raisin.

Another noteworthy fact about him is that he’s played a doctor in the first two seasons of Smallville, as well as in the movie Terminator 2: Judgment Day.  He’s also been given doctor roles on daytime, particularly in Another World and All My Children.  There’s no doubt he’ll do a good job on his recurring role as Justin’s med-school mentor in the fourth season of Brothers & Sisters.

Joe Morton Lands Recurring Role on Brothers & Sisters

Joe Morton has landed a recurring role on the new season of Brothers & Sisters.

When the fourth season of the ABC drama kicks off next month, Justin Walker (Dave Annable) is in medical school; Morton will portray his anatomy professor.

The actor, who has guest-starred on a number of shows – including Boston Legal and House – will appear in at least seven episodes.

Brothers and Sisters TV Show Summary

The adult children of William Walker gather to celebrate Kitty’s birthday. Little do they know that, on this day, their lives will take a dramatic turn. These siblings are about to find out that underneath the idyllic family facade lie many secrets that threaten to either tear the family apart or bring them closer together. Cast includes Calista Flockhart, Ron Rifkin, Balthazar Getty & Rachel Griffiths.

Oscar-winner Sally Field and popular Ally McBeal star Calista Flockhart made their highly touted joint return to series television in this hour-long serialized drama set in California. Field was cast as Nora Walker, matriarch of a prosperous and sizeable family and mistress of an impressive estate. Nora’s comfortable, well-ordered lifestyle was shattered upon the death of her husband, William (played in the opener by Tom Skerritt), whereupon things also unraveled for Nora’s grown children, with dark secrets and unhappy relationships coming to the forefront in rapid and disturbing fashion. Flockhart was seen as Nora’s daughter Kitty, a New York-based conservative talk-show host who was in town at the time of her father’s death to consider a job as a political commentator on a national TV show. Rachel Griffiths played Kitty’s sister Sarah, who had remained in California to help run the family business with her brother Thomas (Balthazar Getty) and Thomas’ wife, Julia (Sarah Jane Morris).

Other members of the Walker brood included Justin (David Annable), a disturbed veteran of the Afghan war, and Kevin (Matthew Rhys), a gay lawyer, as well as Sarah’s stay-at-home-dad husband, Joe (John Pyper-Ferguson), and their children and Saul Holden (Ron Rifkin), family uncle and brother to Nora. Looming ominously over the proceedings was a “mystery woman” (later identified as Holly Harper), who had some sort of connection with the late William Walker, and who was portrayed by Patricia Wettig, real-life wife of series co-producer/co-creator Ken Olin. Brothers & Sisters premiered September 24, 2006, on ABC.
