Garza’s squad additionally consists of Carter Hope (performed by Las Vegas‘ James Lesure), a promotion-hungry traditionalist; Laura Stenson (Life UneXpected‘s Britt Robertson), a gifted agent in determined want of a second probability (and possibly a less-stuffy wardrobe); and Elena Flores (Ruthless‘ Michelle Nuñez), whereas — shock! — Courtney Ford (Legends of Tomorrow) performs Garza’s skeptical supervisor, Tracy.
On the house entrance, in the meantime, Banshee‘s Frankie R. Faison is again as Simone’s father, Christopher “Cutty” Clark, with whom she’s going to stay (not less than within the interim).
