Blindspot welcomes two actors with One Chicago connections on Friday, as America Olivo and Darren Goldstein guest star in the next episode.

One Chicago fans will want to tune into NBC‘s Blindspot tonight, as tonight’s episode guest stars two actors that you’ll recognize.

Friday’s Blindspot episode is called “Two Legendary Chums” and involves FBI agent Kurt Weller (Sullivan Stapleton) reuniting with his former partner for an undercover operation, while his wife and current partner Jane Doe (Jaimie Alexander) handles family issues.

America Olivo, who recurred on Chicago PD and has also appeared on Chicago Fire, portrays the character Ameni in the episode. Olivo plays Laura Dawson, the wife (and later ex-wife) of Antonio Dawson (Jon Seda) in One Chicago.

There’s also another actor that viewers might know, if you happen to be a fan of Chicago Med star Colin Donnell.

Darren Goldstein, who appeared opposite Colin Donnell in Showtime‘s The Affair, is in this week’s Blindspot as the aforementioned ex-partner Don Shipley.

Goldstein played Oscar, the lecherous owner of the Lobster Roll who caused headaches for Colin’s Scotty Lockhart and his brother Cole (Joshua Jackson), on The Affair. Most notably, Oscar and the brothers came to blows during the first season. So if you watched the Showtime series, you may also enjoy seeing Colin Donnell’s antagonist playing a good guy on Blindspot.

This isn’t the first time actors who have One Chicago ties have turned up on the other NBC show. During Blindspot season 2, actress Li Jun Li had a recurring role as therapist Dr. Sun. Just before starting that show, she had been seen as Officer Julie Tay, Kim Burgess’s (Marina Squerciati) last patrol partner, on Chicago PD.
