Despite being mostly tight-lipped when it came to revealing many of the story developments of the second season of Dollhouse, Joss Whedon did hint at it having "a couple of other faces you recognize." As time wore on though, so did his penchant for secrecy. Whedon dropped two names: Alexis Denisof and Summer Glau. Now, any Buffy and Angel fans can attest to the greatness of Alexis Denisof, who played the bumbling "watcher" Wesley who was originally sent to look after Faith (played by Eliza Dushku). Whedon fans will surely enjoy that bit of TV synergy, but Summer Glau is naturally the real draw here.
Whedon made sure to clarify that, at this point, Glau is still a "maybe". They're still working out the details, but if everything goes as planned, she will indeed be on the show. I'm curious to see what part she ends up playing, because there's a notable similarity between the blank-faced River (her character on Firefly) and the "dolls" (or "actives") in Dollhouse. How interested would you guys be to see her play a "doll" on the show?
