Rumer Willis is spreading her wings as an actress with a gritty role as a lady of the evening for her guest-starring role on Medium.

"It's a little strange for me to have the daughter of one of my closest friends [Bruce Willis] play a prostitute, but she is really terrific in this role," says Medium executive producer Glenn Gordon Caron, who worked with Bruce on Moonlighting.

"She's extremely talented and a wonderful mix of both Bruce and Demi," adds Glenn. "She has her mom's sensitivity and vulnerability, but that tough streak her dad has, and she's as bright as both of them. But she's really her own person."

The episode, set to air May 18, is titled "The First Cut Is the Deepest" and features Balthazar Getty as Rumer's character's john, as well as the return of Anjelica Huston as Cynthia Keener, Allison DuBois' former boss who is now in jail for murdering her daughter's killer.

Glenn tells us, "Anjelica is back for just this one episode, and we wanted to find someone really good to direct it, so it was my idea to have Patricia Arquette direct again. She's a terrific director. When I approached her about it, she was flabbergasted, like, 'Really?' If we come back next season, you will likely see Patricia directing more episodes."

Glenn filled us in on much, much more about Medium, so check this section on Monday to hear all about the season finale, deaths and guest stars galore.
