"James Brolin has joined ABC&amp;#039;s Castle. The Emmy award-winning actor has been cast as lead character Rick Castle&amp;#039;s (Nathan Fillion) mysterious father, according to TV Line.   Brolin will appear in Castle&amp;#039;s upcoming two-parter, which will air on February 18 and February 25. The episode in question will see Rick and Kate (Stana Katic) investigating a murder that is connected to a serious kidnap plot. Nip/Tuck actor Dylan Walsh was previously announced to be starring in the episodes as FBI Agent Harris, who is brought in to help with the investigation. However, it is currently unclear whether or not Rick&amp;#039;s father becomes involved in the case. James Brolin won an Emmy for his role in Marcus Welby MD in 1970, and has more recently starred in the likes of Psych and Law &amp;amp; Order: SVU. He will also play the father of Joel McHale&amp;#039;s Jeff Winger on NBC&amp;#039;s Community later this year. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
