The ‘Scandal’ cast posted some photos recently of them filming, for the upcoming remainder of the season and today comes word of some cast development going on over at its sister show. Following a surprise role from Lynn Whitfield toward the end of ‘HTGAWM’s mid season, now Legendary actress Cicely Tyson is reported to join the fold in a mystery capacity. According to Entertainment Weekly:
