Bulgaria’s football star Dimitar Berbatov will join the cast of the hit Bulgarian TV series “Staklen Dom” (The Glass House), local media reported.

According to the Bulgarian weekly “168 Chassa” (168 Hours), Berbatov was a fan of the TV series and had agreed to participate in five episodes of the second season as himself. The report says that the episodes have not been filmed yet.

The former capital of the Bulgarian national football team has refused to be involved in love stories. Instead, he is expected to help Kamen Kasabov (Kalin Vrachanski) in a very important moment.

The Bulgarian pop folk singer Preslava is also expected to make an appearance in the second season of “Staklen Dom.”

Model Dilyana Popova will have a more serious role in the TV series. She will take the part of Boryana’s long-lost sister, Albena. A love triangle is expected to form between the sisters and Kamen.

"The Glass House" is a family and criminal drama, a reflection of today's real-life Bulgarian society.

The saga involves the story of Kamen Kasabov (Kalin Vrachanski), who returns from the United States for the 60th birthday of his long-estranged father. They have not been in touch for 18 years at the time Kamen lands in Sofia.

The father Dimitar Kasabov (Stefan Danailov) is the majority owner of a shopping mall and a man of strong character. The plot thickens when Kasabov Sr. becomes victim of a gangland murder, and only later the viewers find out he survived and is in London, under a witness protection program. Other twists of fate, and secret love relationships change everyone's lives in the small world of the mall forever.

In the new season, the key event is the return of Kasabov Sr. and the revelation of dark secrets from the past of several characters, casting shadows even on the most perfect ones. The series will also feature a new character – Charlie (Bulgarian heartthrob, Asen Blatechki), a con with a long criminal record.

The plot involves large-scale criminal conspiracy, scams worth millions, love, murder and kidnapping.
