Nurse Jackie Premiere: Dr. Cullen's Got Wandering Hands
June 2 2009, Published 1:06 p.m. ET
While playing the level-headed Dr. Carlisle Cullen has benefits like worldwide fanfare, actor Peter Facinelli tells RadarOnline.com he's happy playing someone with a pulse--and some odd sexual tendencies.
Facinelli has joined the cast of Edie Falco's return to primetime cable in Nurse Jackie, after her monster hit The Sopranos. The actor plays a doctor once more, but his character Fitch Cooper has an interesting bedside manner.
"I'm excited to have this role because it's so unique. I play a doctor with extreme highs and lows," he tells us, "my character acts out with inappropriate sexual touching."
At least Falco doesn't have to worry about fang marks.
