Los Angeles — Madam Secretary won't lack secretaries of state this fall.
CBS on Tuesday announced former secretaries Hillary Clinton, Madeleine Albright and Colin Powell will appear on drama's fifth season.
CBS says star Tea Leoni, in her role as Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord, seeks their advice.
Clinton retweeted a photo of everyone on set, adding that it was wonderful to spend some time with the Madam Secretary team.
