Move over Cece, Schmidt’s former college girlfriend is coming to town on New Girl and she’ll be played by Merritt Wever.
Merritt Wever will appear as one of Schmidt’s college girlfriends in an upcoming episode, reports TV Line. Schmidt will seek her out as he tries to get over his feelings for Cece after she gets engaged. It’s being reported that Wever’s character will be able to enlighten Schmidt about the situation.
Last month, it was also revealed that Schmidt would be looking to reconnect with his ex-girlfriend in the hopes to make Cece jealous. It may not go as he planned when she wants him to revisit his days of chowing down as fat Schmidt. If he does this, she will help him with the favor he needs.
It sounds as though Wever’s character will be able to get Schmidt to look back on his fun-loving days. I mean, who doesn’t love fat Schmidt? Perhaps he’s drifted too far away from his past self and not for the better.
You may know Wever from Nurse Jackie, The Good Wife, or Into The Wild.
Are you glad to see that Wever will appear on ‘New Girl’? How do you think her character will affect Schmidt?
