It looks like when ‘How To Get Away with Murder‘ returns this fall to ABC, it will have a new addition, courtesy of one of my fave actresses Lauren Velez from the hit TV show ‘New York Undercover’.
Via TV Line:
Luna (Lauren) Vélez, who played Captain María LaGuerta on Showtime’s vigilante drama, is joining HTGAWM in a major Season 3 recurring role, TVLine has learned exclusively. The actress will play the President of Middleton University, where Viola Davis’ Annalise Keating works as a professor (when she’s not, you know, covering up murders with the help of her students).
The original casting breakdown described the character — whose name is TBA — as “self-assured, friendly, warm and diplomatic.”
In addition to her seven-season run on Dexter, Vélez’s TV credits include Ugly Betty,Elementary and Law & Order: SVU.
Season 3 of HTGAWM is set to arrive Thursday, Sept. 22 at 10/9c.
