A hot actor guest-starring on The CW?! Color us shocked.

We've just learned that a 10 Things I Hate About You star will be appearing on Kevin Williamson's new fall drama The Secret Circle and he's bringing nothin' but drama.

 Chris Zylka is set to guest star as Billy, a mysterious young man who returns to Chance Harbor, his hometown, only to learn a lot has changed since his last visit. (Britt Robertson's character Cassie can do that to a town.) One thing that's definitely changed? His former girlfriend Faye (Phoebe Tonkin) plans to use her newly discovered powers to exact revenge on him. Too bad he's set his eyes on his neighbor Cassie, something Adam (Thomas Dekker) will be less than thrilled about.

No word yet on how long Zylka will be sticking around The Secret Circle (he first appears in episode six), but we're hoping it's for more than one episode because he is way too good-looking to disappear so quickly.

The Secret Circle premieres Thursday, Sept. 15, at 9 p.m. on The CW.
