Shalim Ortiz Joins Heroes

It’s a slow Heroes news day, so that means reporting the casting of a what is sure to be a minor (an episode or two, perhaps?) character is worth posting. Having said that, actor Shalim Ortiz has joined the cast of Heroes. Ortiz, whose previous credits include “Spin”, will play an immigrant trying to escape his country to get to America with his sister (Dania Ramirez), says Variety. Ortiz is a singer/actor from San Juan, Puerto Rico, who relocated to Miami, Florida to pursue his career.
