Modern Family Teaser with James Marsden

Actor James Marsden is what I like to call, “too cute”. That’s not an insult. Its a compliment. You will probably remember him best as Cyclops from the live action X-Men movie or as Prince Edward opposite Amy Adams and Patrick Dempsey in Enchanted. He has also appeared in The Notebook, Superman Returns, Hairspray, 27 Dresses, and The Box. Now he is all set to guest star on the very popular ABC comedy hit, Modern Family.

AceShowBiz reports the show will return to the airwaves in January to continue their exciting second season which will soon see Marsden as “Barry, Cam and Mitch’s new neighbor who lives upstairs and stumbles upon the gay couple when he jumps into their hot tub unannounced.” Oops! Check him out in this teaser trailer. Just hit play!

Barry turns out to be “quite the charmer”. I wonder if he’ll become a series regular. I know I certainly wouldn’t complain if he did.

Season two began back in September and ends in May of 2011. Marsden isn’t the only name adding star power to the sitcom. Matt Dillon is also scheduled to appear. He’ll portray Claire’s ex who just so happens to be currently dating her mother. Eww? Mother dearest is acted by Shelley Long. Fans of the show can check out tons of bonus material over at the official website.
