According to TVLine's Michael Ausiello, John Barrowman will be guest-starring in an upcoming episode of Scandal. Here's an excerpt from the article:
“John Barrowman is here working today at Scandal,” Rhimes wrote. “Life is good.”
Rhimes didn’t reveal any further details about Barrowman’s character. Sources, meanwhile, confirm he’ll appear in this season’s penultimate episode on Thursday, May 9.
Barrowman had a role in Rhimes’ ill-fated ABC period drama pilot Gilded Lilys.

My thoughts: I've never watched the show Torchwood, so I can't comment on John Barrowman's acting on that show, but I loved him on Desperate Housewives, and I thought that he was great on Arrow, so I'm definitely very excited about this news. That being said, I have to say that it kind of bugs me that Shonda Rhimes and the other producers have been very secretive about a lot of the guest-star roles on Scandal this season. On the other hand, the producers' tendency to be very secretive about the show's guest-stars has led to some very surprising moments on the show, especially when it comes to Scott Foley and his character, Jake, so I definitely kind of enjoy being surprised by the writers. Scandal has really been on fire this season, both creatively and in the ratings, so I'm sure that whatever happens with John Barrowman's character, it will be very exciting. If you're not already watching Scandal, then you definitely need to start watching the show immediately, because Scandal is a truly amazing show.
