Gina Rodriguez is set to guest star on an upcoming episode of the award-winning Fox comedy Brooklyn Nine-Nine – potentially as the love interest of Rosa Diaz.
Brooklyn Nine-Nine has won critical acclaim and awards for not just its cast’s stellar performances, but the ability to mix comedy and serious topics.
If Rodriguez is to play a love interest for Beatriz, it would be an important step forward for representation.
The subsequent episode had Rosa breaking the news to her traditional parents, played by Danny Trejo and Olga Merediz.
