As the World Turns alum Jordana Brewster (ex-Nikki Munson) has joined Magnum P.I. in a very important role that could throw Magnum into a tailspin.

Former As the World Turns star Jordana Brewster (ex-Nikki Munson) is set to make a big splash on Magnum P.I. when she joins the series later this month in a pivotal role.

According to EW, the Panama native has signed on to the CBS series as Hannah, a former CIA analyst who not only embedded Magnum (Jay Hernandez) and his team in Afghanistan, but who also bedded Magnum himself.

Unfortunately for him, Hannah's romantic interest was all an act, and the betrayal led to his capture and time spent as a P.O.W. -- which means the pair's reunion is likely to be fiery on all accounts.

Brewster's first television role was a brief stint as All My Children's Anita Santos in 1995. That was followed by a six-year stint as ATWT's Nikki before she went on to have a successful post-soap career as Mia Toretto in the Fast & Furious film franchise.

Her additional credits include a 2012 to 2014 role on Dallas as well as roles in Chuck, American Crime Story, Secrets and Lies, and the small screen adaptation of Lethal Weapon. Brewster is also set to reprise her role as Mia in the next evolution of the Fast & Furious franchise that's due out in 2020.

Magnum P.I., which is a reboot of the 1980's Tom Selleck series, airs Monday nights at 9PM on CBS. Brewster is set to make her first appearance as Hannah on Monday, February 18.
