Michael Zegen, a Jew who played a Jew on TV—he was Bugsy Siegel on “Boardwalk Empire”—will join the cast of “Girls” next season, Vulture reports.

No news on whether he’ll be wooing Marnie now that Chris Abbot has jumped ship, but at least we can take comfort in the knowledge that the show is replenishing its cute guy stock. For a preview of what you’ll be getting, check out “Frances Ha,” in which Zegen stars alongside another cute “Girls’” guy, Adam Driver.
