Alana De La Garza is moving from FBI: Most Wanted to FBI

Deadline

On FBI, De La Garza will fill the void left by Sela Ward, who departed this spring after a one-year deal on the crime drama. The actress played Assistant Special Agent in Charge Isobel Castile on FBI's April 2 backdoor pilot for the spinoff FBI: Most Wanted. She'll continue playing Castile on FBI: Most Wanted as a recurring guest-star. As Deadline's Nellie Andreeva points out, "the move underscores the cohesiveness of the TV universes Dick Wolf builds with his procedural franchises, like NBC’s One Chicago, where characters and actors move seamlessly between shows. De La Garza has experienced that firsthand — after she played Connie Rubirosa on Wolf’s long-running NBC procedural drama Law & Order, she reprised the role on spinoff Law & Order: LA and in an episode of Law & Order: SVU."
