Santiago has joined the cast of Alcatraz!
Santiago Cabrera has joined the cast of forthcoming Fox drama Alcatraz.
The pilot, from executive producer J.J. Abrams, will follow police officer Rebecca Madsen (Sarah Jones) as she works with a team of FBI agents to track down a group of missing Alcatraz prisoners and guards.
Deadline reports that former Heroes star Cabrera will play Madsen's "sweet-natured" fiance Jimmy in the project.
The actor previously starred as super-powered artist Isaac Mendez on the NBC series from 2006 to 2007 and also plays the recurring role of Lancelot on BBC fantasy drama Merlin.
He will join the previously-cast Sam Neill, Jorge Garcia, Jonny Coyne, Parminder Nagra and Jason Butler Harner in Alcatraz.
Filming on the pilot is expected to commence later this month.
