January Jones has been cast in Fox's post-apocalyptic comedy series The Last Man on Earth.
This is the actress's first TV role since finishing production on the AMC drama Mad Men this summer.
Will Forte created The Last Man on Earth and will star as the sole survivor on Earth after the rest of humankind suddenly disappears.
Jones will play Melissa, who is a recurring character with a "strong independent spirit" and a mixture of "warmth, strength, and a no-nonsense attitude".
Mel Rodriquez, Kristen Schaal and Cleopatra Coleman have also been added to the cast.
The Last Man on Earth will debut on March 1, 2015 on Fox.
