MARK CONSUELOS RETURNS AS A GUEST STAR ON ABC'S POPULAR COMEDY "HOPE & FAITH"
Mark Consuelos, co-star of the television series "Missing," will return as a guest star on the third season premiere of ABC's "Hope & Faith."

Then, when both the romantic newscaster and the sexy baseball star proposed marriage simultaneously, a thoroughly confused Faith fainted. Now, in the premiere episode of the new season, Faith must decide whose wife she really wants to be.
Consuelos can be seen in theatrical feature "The Great Raid," which will be released August 12. The film is an inspiring drama that tells the true story of a daring rescue mission during World War II.
