Cynthia Nixon to
visit Fox's House

Out Sex and the City star Cynthia Nixon will make a guest appearance on an upcoming episode of the Fox medical drama House. The episode is slated to air in December, the network said Friday. Nixon will play a "sharp-witted patient who suffers from a mysterious seizure and goes toe-to-toe" with Dr. Gregory House (Hugh Laurie), while he and his team try to discover the source of her ailment.

Last season the 39-year-old actress played a soccer mom who suffers a stroke and is rushed to the emergency room in an episode on NBC's ER. Nixon played Miranda Hobbes on Sex and the City. She won an Emmy for her role on the HBO show. (AP)
