Felix Solis (The Rookie, Ozark) is the latest to join the cast of NBC‘s The Rockford Files pilot, which also includes the previously announced cast led by David Boreanaz, and also includes Michaela McManus and Jacki Weaver.
The project is a contemporary update on the classic series of the same name. Newly paroled after doing time for a crime he didn’t commit, James Rockford (Boreanaz) returns to his life as a private investigator using his charm and wit to solve cases around Los Angeles. It doesn’t take long for his quest for legitimacy to land him squarely in the cross-hairs of both local police and organized crime.
Solis will play Rockford’s (Boreanaz) best friend, Nitty, who turned his life around and became a successful South L.A. defense attorney. He stayed in the neighborhood to help effect change.
