A familiar face is coming to FBI. Deadline reports FBI: Most Wanted star Alana de la Garza is moving to the flagship CBS TV show for season two.
De la Garza plays Assistant Special Agent in Charge Isobel Castile on the spinoff series FBI: Most Wanted. She’ll reprise the role as a series regular on FBI, which also stars Missy Peregrym, Zeeko Zaki, Ebonée Noel, and Jeremy Sisto.
De la Garza’s move to FBI will help fill the space left by departing star Sela Ward. Season two is slated to debut on CBS this fall.
What do you think? Do you watch FBI? Are you excited for season two?
I thought sela ward left after season 1 but I am seeing her now on season 2 episode.
I just saw sela ward in season 2, Tuesday October 29. Thought she left?
I am a big fan of Sela Ward and was sad to see her gone after just one season. She and De La Garza are just two total opposities in their way of taking on personna of a role.
I’m a fan too but not of Sela in this role. Watching the rerun last night just reminded me of how much I loved her cameo on Westworld. She feels more at home in the character driven roles. De La Garza is a solid actress. I loved her in Forever, Law & Order, Beyond Borders. There is a reason Dick Wolf brings her back, I get that. But that said, the writers have to give the character three dimensions, like they did with Jeremy Sisto last episode.
I want sela ward back
Please bring back Sela Ward. She was much better than her re placement.
I disagree. I will always be a Sela Ward fan but I’m glad she can go do other things now. The part is a relatively small one and I really tune in for Missy. But I do like Isobel a lot.
Not better for me. I’m Team Alana.
Respectfully, I liked Sela but De La Garza has settled in VERY nicely imho and doesn’t deserve personal attacks. She doesn’t write the character and didn’t have anything to do with Sela’s exit. Plus, the ratings agree with me. The numbers for a second year show have sustained quite well, given her absence.
Bring back Selena Ward. De la Garza is and akways was second rate. This show is too good to mess up with bad actors.
Not in my mind. She’s a first rate actor and a first class human being. I love the way she talks about her children. Very grounded soul. And I really love her in this role on FBI.
I have to disagree. I think Garza is fabulous.
Forever was remarkable and a complete victim of a failed Nielsen ratings model when streaming just started to count. Alana’s a very talented actress. I’m watching FBI because of her.
I think sela does a better job, I want seala ward back. Now
Ok. I mean you’re entitled to like whoever you want. I still watch FBI for Alana.
I prefer Alana personally.
No, do not like replacement for Sela Ward.
Alana does not fit the role. Need more nuanced actor, who is more low key. I agree it takes away from my interest.
I’m missing Sela Ward. They are trying to switch up the role by making Alana de le Garza’s character act like a b*tch. She can’t fill the role that we already started to gel with.
Sela was just too passive for my tastes. I prefer the new girl. Sorry.
Sela rocks big mistake fix it or i wont watch!
Like the addition of the the old Bones FBI guy but he is Not enough to make me stay. The new head of the office is dull, boring, weak, lack luster… I’ve tried to watch but the dynamic changed and the show is boring and no longer holds my interest. There is no group dynamic. First season was as great as the 2nd season is awful. FBI needs the strength of someone like Thomas Gibson if you cannot get Sela Ward back. The CBS triple threat line up is a dud in the middle.
Alana de la Garza looks like she could be Sela Ward’s younger sister, excellent casting!
Sorry … no one can replace Sela Ward!!! It’s insulting to replace with an actress who resembles her to a minor degree. Better to have gone the PC route!!
I really liked Season one of FBI, I was very sorry to see Sela Ward leave she was wonderful in that roll. I watched the first episode of season 2 and I did not like her replacement at ALL. She was terrible in the roll. Please get Sela Ward back.!!
I agree with these people. Sela Ward is a great actor. Her character was much better than Alana de la Garza. Sela Ward made her character dynamic.
I want Sela Ward, back on FBI. I don’t care for her replacement. I will not be watching the FBI again. CBC made a huge mistake, for not extending her contract .
Bring Sela back…perfect disposition played for the role!
I will be watching.
