Aimee Garcia has a fiery new gig.
The Dexter actress has joined Fox's Lucifer as a series regular for season two, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
Garcia will play Ella Lopez, the police department’s new forensic scientist. A bit of a walking contradiction, Ella is described as brainy but spiritual, warm but tough. She grew up in a pretty rough neighborhood in Detroit, but also in a strong Catholic family, under the watchful and protective eye of her five brothers… which might explain some of her opposing personality traits. It also explains why she’s always felt comfortable in the tough, male-dominated world of law enforcement. Her mutual belief in both faith and science proves a point of interest to Lucifer (Tom Ellis), and the rest of the department, as they get to know and love her quirky ways.
