LOS ANGELES, July 19 (UPI) -- Scream Queens star Lea Michele is giving fans a first on-set glimpse of Taylor Lautner.

The 29-year-old actress shared a video of the 24-year-old actor in costume as the new character Dr. Cassidy Cascade on Snapchat.

"Hi, Snapchat," Lautner says in the clip before Michele asks if he's having the best time ever. "[Yes, I'm having] the best time ever."

Entertainment Weekly described Cascade as a doctor who "suffers from a bizarre medical condition" when Lautner joined the Season 2 cast in June. The character becomes a suspect in a new wave of tragedies.

"I've known Taylor since we were kids," co-star Keke Palmer told Entertainment Tonight on Sunday. "It was cool to finally be doing a project with him."

Fuller House star John Stamos is among the other newcomers for Season 2, playing a "brilliant" but "secretive" surgeon. Returning star Emma Roberts revealed last week either Lautner or Stamos will play her love interest in the new season.

"Honestly, I would be happy with either of them," she said on the July 12 episode of Watch What Happens Live.

Scream Queens Season 2 will premiere Sept. 20. Lautner is best known for playing Jacob Black in the Twilight film series and has since portrayed Dale on the BBC Three sitcom Cuckoo.
