CBS All Access executive vice president of original content Julie McNamara confirmed the news Sunday at the Television Critics Association summer press tour. Details about Alba's character are being kept under wraps.

Alba posted photos Friday on Instagram with No Activity stars Tim Meadows and Patrick Brammall.

"I did a thing and got to work w these two today @noactivitycbs and my heart skipped a beat when #timmeadows laughed so hard he actually cried after one of the scenes," the star captioned the post.

"thx @patrickbrammall #actorlife #supergrateful - download and watch out for my episode folks!" she added.
