EXCLUSIVE: The new Bosch spinoff series centering on Renée Ballard is rounding out its cast, adding Ricardo Chavera, Noah Bean, Alain Uy and Hector Hugo in recurring roles. They join previously announced series regulars Maggie Q, Courtney Taylor, John Carroll Lynch, Michael Mosley, Rebecca Field, Victoria Moroles and Amy Hill.
The untitled series follows Detective Renée Ballard (Q), who is tasked with running the LAPD’s new cold case division — a poorly funded, all-volunteer unit with the largest caseload in the city. Ballard approaches these frozen-in-time cases with empathy and determination. When she uncovers a larger conspiracy during her investigations, she’ll lean on the assistance of her retired ally, Harry Bosch, to navigate the dangers that threaten both her unit and her life.
Chavera will play Detective Robert Olivas, a well-respected, charming and charismatic detective, who shares a complicated past with Ballard.
Bean will portray Councilman Jake Pearlman, a savvy yet altruistic politician who goes out on a limb to bolster the Cold Case Unit in order to solve the murder of his sister.
Uy will play Nelson Hastings, a shrewd and ambitious political animal. He’s been friends with Jake Pearlman (Bean) since high school and will do whatever is needed to support Jake.
Hugo will portray Captain Berchem, an RHD captain and man of the people, a real “cops cop” who took a leap on Ballard and cares deeply about justice and the integrity of his team.
The series is executive produced by showrunners Michael Alaimo & Kendall Sherwood alongside Michael Connelly, Trish Hofmann and Jet Wilkinson. Henrik Bastin and Melissa Aouate executive produce for Fabel Entertainment with Jasmine Russ as co-executive producer. Additional co-executive producers include Jamie Boscardin Martin, Mark Douglas, Trey Batchelor and Theresa Snider (under Hieronymus Pictures).
Chavira can be seen in the Netflix series, Selena, playing the series regular role of Selena’s father, CBS’ Kevin Can Wait, and Jane the Virgin, among others. He’s represented by Gilbertson Entertainment and Innovative Artists.
Bean’s role reunites him with his fellow Nikita alum Maggie Q. He also starred in the Emmy-nominated Damages, 12 Monkeys, and most recently, The Endgame for NBC. Bean is repped by Venture Entertainment Partners and IAG.
Hugo recurred on the FX series Snowfall and also has appeared on HBO’s Veep, Fox’s Arrested Development and Lethal Weapon and CBS’ NCIS, among others. Hugo is repped by Singular Talent and Vault Entertainment.
Uy can be seen in Hulu’s Helstrom, ABC’s Station 19, Starz’s Power Book IV: Force, among other credits. Uy is represented by Buchwald and Zero Gravity Management.
