The Cleaning Lady has added a former Mayan to the cast for season three. Clayton Cardenas (Mayans MC) has joined the cast of the FOX drama, per Deadline. Kate del Castillo and Santiago Cabrera are also new regulars this season.
Starring Elodie Yung, Oliver Hudson, Adan Canto, Martha Millan, Faith Bryant, Sean Lew, Eva De Dominici, Naveen Andrews, and Sebastien and Valentino LaSalle, The Cleaning Lady follows Thony De La Rosa (Yung), a Cambodian doctor who comes to the U.S. for medical treatment to save her son, but she finds herself dragged into the criminal underworld when she becomes a cleaner for a powerful crime syndicate.
The following was revealed about the role Cardenas will play:
Cardenas has joined the cast of FOX’s The Cleaning Lady for Season 3 in the role of Dante, Ramona’s (Kate del Castillo) trusted lieutenant who is intense and authoritative with a dangerous edge. Unconcerned with anything but protecting the business, Dante grows increasingly aggravated with Thony (Élodie Yung), who constantly undermines their operations.
Castillo and Cabrera have also joined the FOX drama as series regulars in the roles of mysterious siblings Ramona and Jorge Sanchez. Here’s more information from FOX:
Kate del Castillo plays the elegant, beautiful and regal matriarch, Ramona Sanchez who has the grace and quiet wisdom that belies a ruthless cunning below the surface. To the world, she’s a benevolent philanthropist, art collector and loving aunt to a young child, but behind closed doors, she’s shrewd, powerful and fiercely protective of her family, her business and her many dark secrets. Driven by the desire to seek out the right heir to continue her legacy, Ramona deftly manipulates everyone in her orbit to determine who are her allies and eliminate those who are her obstacles. Throughout the season, Ramona will sharpen her claws to ensure she gets what she wants and calmly eviscerates anyone who stands in her way without breaking a sweat.
Her brother, Jorge Sanchez, played by Santiago Cabrera is intelligent and intuitive with a deep inner strength. He was born in Mexico but raised in the U.S. with all the privileges that newfound wealth has brought to his family. A Harvard Law grad, Jorge has been working as a successful businessman using legitimate business fronts to launder money and serve as a fixer in his family’s organization. Struggling with his wife’s untimely death, he cycles through stages of grief and an insatiable rage at the world, often making him volatile and unpredictable. The only joy left in his life is his daughter, Violeta, whom he strives to protect above all else. But everything changes when Thony walks into his life, opening old wounds, reminding him of the family he once lost – and challenging him to be the person he could be.
The Cleaning Lady returns to FOX for its third season on March 5th.
What do you think? Do you enjoy this FOX drama series? Are you excited to see what happens next?
I swear I thought I remembered this being cancelled lol
I watched all the episodes and often passed over the many boring parts. I will finish it off, but I can’t wait for it to finally be over.
I can’t believe you killed the cop off. Hope Thony gets her family back. I love the show
Top show for us all the way over to England.
Formidable!!!
Really excited – hope to see that Thony and Armon realize they are meant for each other and Nadia finds someone who is the perfect one for her.
I can’t wait for this show to return! The layered plot lines, excellent acting, brilliant writing, and amazing cast, combine to make this production a show that I look forward to every week. I have missed it greatly these past months.
