Jesse Spencer has renewed his contract to star on Fox’s House for the upcoming Season 8, a spokesperson from NBC Universal, the studio that produces the show, released today.
Spencer broke the news on Twitter while surfing in Newport Beach, Calif. “I’m coming back for season 8 with a tan and a busted board,” he jokingly tweets.
The actor has played the role of Dr. Robert Chase for all seven seasons. And with the speculation that the eighth season may be the show’s last, and the fact that Lisa Edelstein, who played Dr. Lisa Cuddy, announced she won’t be returning, some wondered who else may not come back.
Season eight of House will premier on Monday, October 3.
