To update on what SciFi Mafia reported earlier in a spoiler edition of “True Blood” news, Lafayette’s love interest has been cast!
Jesus Velasquez will be played by Kevin Alejandro, “a good-natured Latino orderly who’s caring for Lafayette’s mother”. He will appear in this recurring role for nearly every episode of season three of Alan Ball’s HBO series. Alejandro will keep his regular role in “Southland” that has hopped networks from NBC to TNT. “Southland” will air new episodes beginning January 12th while the network contemplates ordering a second season of the show.
You might also recognize Alejandro from the short-lived Fox series in 2007, “Drive”, starring Nathan Fillion, and Betty’s sister’s baby-daddy on ABC’s “Ugly Betty”.
