Heather Locklear ("Spin City," "Melrose Place," "The Perfect Man") will guest-star in a two-episode arc of "Boston Legal," currently scheduled to air during the upcoming May Sweep, it was announced today. Locklear will play Kelly Nolan, a splashy, exotic murder defendant -- dubbed by the media "The Black Widow" -- whom Alan Shore (James Spader) and Brad Chase (Mark Valley) represent when she's charged with poisoning her older husband.
"We're thrilled to be working with Heather again. Her humor, sex appeal and mischief make her perfectly suited for 'Boston Legal.' She's so cool and mysterious, even I can't tell if she did it," said creator and executive producer David E. Kelley.
