Olyphant had guest-starred on the sitcom as Samantha's (Christina Applegate) boss and former boyfriend Winston Funk, but his commitment to FX's Damages has ruled him out of any future appearances.
Producers have moved quickly to recast the part, bringing in the Titanic actor to fill the void. Zane will debut in episode 15, confronting Samantha for rejecting his marriage proposal.
Samantha Who?, now in its second season, follows a woman suffering from memory loss following an accident.
