Already adept at Screaming, Jamie Kennedy is going to have to lower his voice.
The Malibu's Most Wanted funnyman will be joining the cast of Ghost Whisperer this fall as an academic who bonds with Jennifer Love Hewitt's supernaturally sensitive mystery solver.
Kennedy's psych grad-student character, Eli, will ultimately be taking the place of former series regular Jay Mohr's Professor Rick Payne, who will be heading off on sabbatical a few episodes into season four.
Recently, Kennedy, who starred in the first two Scream films before meeting a gruesome end, has had guest spots on Criminal Minds, Reaper and Mind of Mencia, and he'll appear in the upcoming spoof flick Extreme Movie.
