Illeana Douglas has landed a recurring role on CBS’ freshman legal drama Shark. She will portray a smart, sexy defense attorney described as being tough enough to go toe to toe with the charismatic defense attorney-turned-prosecutor Sebastian Stark (James Woods) and confident enough to have fun doing it. Shark recently was given a full-season pickup. Douglas’ TV credits include Six Feet Under, Law & Order: SVU and Action. She appears in the upcoming Edie Sedgwick biopic Factory Girl and the indie feature The Bondage.
