Brothers & Sisters is reuniting Sally Field with her Norma Rae leading man Beau Bridges for an important romantic story arc to start off early next year. Bridges co-starred as the title character’s husband Sonny in the 1979 pic, for which Sally Field won her first Oscar. He will play a love interest for Field’s Walker matriarch Nora in at least five episodes. After showing surprising ratings muscle this fall, the network increased the show’s episode order from 18 to 22 (a full season).
