As first reported on TVLine.com, Broadway and TV veteran Sean Hayes is set to guest star on an upcoming episode of the NBC comedy PARKS AND RECREATION. 

According to the report, Hayes will appear in an episode slated to air this spring that centers on Leslie's (Amy Poehler) political run for city council. The 'Will and Grace' alum will portray a TV reporter who is known by the townspeople as “the Matt Lauer of Indianapolis.” His character will land an exclusive interview with Leslie which does not go smoothly, potentially ruining her chances of getting elected. 

Sean Hayes made his New York stage debut in DAMN YANKEES at City Center Encores, and more recently starred opposite Kristin Chenoweth in the recent revival of PROMISES, PROMISES.

His films include The Bucket List, Pieces of April, The Cat in the Hat (as the voice of the Fish), Billy's Hollywood Screen Kiss, and Cats and Dogs (as the voice of Mr. Tinkles). He has won four Screen Actors Guild Awards, a TV Guide Award and an American Comedy Award. Hayes won an Emmy (and was nominated six times) for his portrayal of Jack on Will & Grace. He starred as Jerry Lewis in the television movie "Martin & Lewis" and will be seen in the upcoming big screen comedy 'The Three Stooges' in the role of 'Larry'.
