Carlos Leal is livin’ the dream…

The 46-year-old Spanish actor has been cast as a series regular on ABC’s comedy pilot Dream Team.

From Kari Lizer and Bill Wrubel, the project centers on Marty Schumacher, who coached his last club soccer team for ten years, ultimately taking them to the National Championships. He now has to start from scratch with a diverse group of eight-year-olds, and their disparate parents.

The project draws on personal experiences by Lizer, who is a soccer mom on the weekends.

Leal will play Carlos Diaz, Olga’s (Michelle Buteau) husband an affable and easy-going owner of a successful restaurant.

Leal has had arcs on Devious Maids and The Last Ship and will next be seen in indie film Spaceman (aka The Wrong Stuff) opposite Josh Duhamel.
