Gaming hottie Zachary Levi, is set to return to his role on Chuck and it couldn’t be soon enough! We’ve waited all fall season for Chuck and The Watcher posted the press release with information about the new season.

The season launches on January 10 with a back-to-back original episodes for the premier. The show will then move to it’s normal time, Mondays 8-9pm starting January 11.

“Josh (Schwartz) and Chris (Fedak) and the writing team are doing a great job this season, and we think the loyal fan base for this show will be happy to see it back on the NBC schedule,” said Angela Bromstad, President, Primetime Entertainment, NBC and Universal Media Studios.

The cast is back for another season and will have more guest stars this season. In a previous interview, Zachary Levi told us that he will be directing an episode of Chuck this season.

“He did a wonderful job,” Fedak said. “Directing ‘Chuck’ is really difficult — the directors have to be proficient not only with the comedy but with the acting, and those are the two most time-consuming things. Our directors are really running a marathon for those seven or eight days that we’re in production. So when the person who’s at the center of the show on a regular basis — Zachary — is directing, it was, ‘Can he physically do that without somehow splitting himself and genetically producing another Zachary Levi?’ But he did it with such smarts and such energy.”
