Jeffrey Donovan, who's been pretty scarce since "Burn Notice" ended in 2013, is poised to make a pretty big return this fall.

Most notably for "Burn Notice" fans, he's returning to quirky series drama with a supporting role in the upcoming season of the critically beloved FX crime-drama "Fargo."

He might be a bit hard to notice amid all the other guests, though. This season will reportedly also feature Ted Danson, Patrick Wilson, Nick Offerman, Jean Smart and more.

Donovan has also had time to dabble with film as well. He has two big-screen roles coming down the pipe. He has a leading role in the Spanish horror film "Extinction," due out later this year and also starring former "Lost" heartthrob Matthew Fox, as well as a supporting role in the drug-running crime drama "Sicario," due out this fall.

People expected great things from Donovan after he blew up (figuratively speaking) along with his surprise-hit drama "Burn Notice" in the late 2000s.

He was suddenly in demand as a film star as well. It started with a leading role in 2008's "Changeling," directed by some guy named Clint Eastwood. Eastwood liked him enough to cast him again in an even more prestigious part, playing Robert Kennedy in 2011's "J. Edgar."
