MADAM SECRETARY: Madeleine Albright, Hillary Clinton, and General Colin Powell to Guest Star

Former secretaries of state Madeleine Albright, Hillary Clinton, and General Colin Powell are guest-starring on the fifth season premiere of MADAM SECRETARY. (The hour airs Sunday, October 7, at 10/9c on CBS.)

Per CBS, “Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord, played by Téa Leoni, turns to the former secretaries of state to ask their advice on how to respond to a delicate situation.”

“We’re delighted to have these three former secretaries of state be part of our season premiere,” said executive producer Barbara Hall said in a statement. “It was a privilege to experience their perspectives and discourse both in and behind the scenes.”

“Having three powerhouses of diplomacy agree to come on our show is awe-inspiring and humbling,” added executive producer  Lori McCreary. “And that we were able to find a time in their busy schedules when they were all available is a miracle. We welcome Secretary Albright, Secretary Clinton and General Powell to the MADAM SECRETARY family!”
