Leeves is one of three new series regulars for Season 2.
Leeves will play Dr. Kitt Voss, a hotshot orthopedic surgeon, on the Matt Czuchry-led medical procedural.
A couple of weeks after Frasier himself (Kelsey Grammer) joined the cast of the upcoming legal drama Proven Innocent, Jane Leeves — who played Daphne Moon, Niles Crane’s (David Hyde Pierce) wife, on the long-running NBC sitcom — will be a series regular on Season 2 of The Resident, according to Deadline.
