AceShowbiz - Rob Lowe and Rashida Jones are heading back to Pawnee one more time before "Parks and Recreation" closes the curtain. The former series regulars on the sitcom will reprise their roles as Chris and Ann respectively in the final season of the comedy series.
They will appear in one episode. The two actors departed the show in the middle of season 6 when their characters decided to move to Michigan to be closer to her family. Jones returned briefly later in the season after Ann gave birth to her and Chris' son Oliver.
In addition to Lowe and Jones, the show has tapped guest star Jon Hamm to return for one episode in the final season. He was featured in season 6 finale when the show flashed forward three years into the future and saw future Leslie (Amy Poehler) firing Ed (Hamm), her employee who was worse than future Larry (Jim O'Heir).
Back in April, showrunner Mike Schur had envisioned the "Mad Men" star's return. "If I have it my way, when we show what led up to that final moment in the season finale, he'll be there to pop in doing something incredibly incompetent," he told E! News.
Megan Mullaly, Ben Schwartz, Natalie Morales and Billy Eichner are other guest stars who will reprise their roles in the upcoming seventh season. NBC has not announced a premiere date for the new and last installment.
