As far as spinoffs go, this is definitely an interesting one, and we already know Sutter is a skilled at developing well-rounded, compelling characters.
Ortiz joins fellow cast members Clayton Cardenas and Edward James Olmos, who will play EZ’s brother and father, respectively.
Creators Sutter and James have expressed their eagerness to use the project as a way to broaden Latino representation on-screen.
Ortiz has enjoyed a prolific career on both the big and small screen, which includes such roles as Ramon Campos in Fast & Furious and Victor Nieves in Kong: Skull Island.
