Aimee Garcia’s next role will have her seeing red…
The 35-year-old Mexican American and Puerto Rican, who recently starred in the MGM reboot of the RoboCop franchise, has joined the cast of the CBS drama pilot Red Zone.
Written by Nikki Toscano and directed by James Foley, the project centers on a retired CIA operative named Holden Weller who, when a terrorist event rocks Washington, D.C., is pulled back into action, as he’s forced to investigate closer to home where the next generation of terrorists is being bred.
Garcia, who starred on Showtime’s Dexter, will portray Vera Bradley, a whip-smart, driven and impatient case officer with the CIA’s Counter-Terrorism department.
