LOS ANGELES, July 11 (UPI) -- Veteran Hollywood star Sally Field has joined the cast of ABC's fall drama "Brothers & Sisters."

Field will play the mom on the show, which slides into "Grey's Anatomy" 10 p.m. Sunday timeslot, right behind "Desperate Housewives," Daily Variety reported Tuesday.

It marks Fields' first regular primetime role since 2002 when she was in the ABC drama "The Court."
