Mira Sorvino expected to join ‘Dancing With the Stars’: report

Mira Sorvino is reportedly joining Season 32 of “Dancing With the Stars.”

The actress, 55, will be making her ballroom debut this fall, according to “Entertainment Tonight.”

Sorvino has yet to confirm whether she’s joining the dance competition series and ABC does not typically comment on casting rumors.

A rep for Sorvino did not immediately respond to our request for comment.

Sorvino rose to fame starring in Woody Allen’s 1995 film “Mighty Aphrodite,” which scored her an Oscar and a Golden Globe award. She’s also known for her roles in “Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion,” “Mimic” and “The Replacement Killers,” among others.

As for who will potentially be joining Sorvino in the ballroom, the full cast will be announced live on “Good Morning America” on Sept. 13.

The hit show, which returns this fall, has officially confirmed the first two contestants: “Vanderpump Rules” star Ariana Madix and the “Bachelorette” Season 20 lead, Charity Lawson.

Lawson’s fiancé, Dotun Olubeko, told the reality star that she had been chosen to compete for the mirrorball trophy when they appeared on the live “Bachelorette” finale last week.

“So I know you like to cut up, you like to dance and you like to get down,” Olubeko told Lawson, 27, alongside host Jesse Palmer. “And you know that we’ve talked about this, about how amazing this opportunity would be, and I am so happy to be the one to tell you that you’re going to be on ‘Dancing with the Stars.’”

Just one month before Lawson’s exciting announcement, “DWTS” confirmed that Madix would be competing on the show following months of speculation and Page Six’s own report.

“This season on ‘Dancing with the Stars,’ we are going absolutely mad – mad for Madix,” judge Derek Hough said in a video that aired on “GMA” in July.

Madix joined the video and eagerly added, “I will be joining the cast of ‘Dancing with the Stars’ this season!”

As previously reported, Madix found herself in a heightened spotlight in March when she found out her then-boyfriend, Tom Sandoval, was having a months-long affair with their mutual co-star Raquel Leviss.

The dalliance – dubbed Scandoval – made headlines beyond the Bravoverse that has helped Madix score other major gigs.
