As Dollhouse fans prepare to say hello to one Whedonite alum, is another Joss Whedon veteran bowing out early?  Unless Amy Acker plans on juggling two series, that could be exactly what she is doing.  Zap2It.com reports that the good Dr. Claire Saunders (Acker) has accepted a role in a new ABC pilot.

Here’s the story:

Amy Acker may be moving out of the Dollhouse and into Happy Town.

The former Angel star has taken a role in the ABC pilot Happy Town, a mystery set in a small town. She headlines a round of pilot casting that also includes Eric Christian Olsen, Brad Henke and Taylor Schilling.

Acker currently co-stars on FOX’s Dollhouse as a doctor who tends to the mind-wiped “actives” in the titular super-secret organization. The show has just about wrapped up filming for the season, but what her casting at ABC means for either her character or the series remains to be seen.
