Felix Solis is the latest addition to the “Rockford Files” reboot pilot at NBC, Variety has learned.

Solis will appear alongside previously announced lead David Boreanaz and fellow cast members Michaela McManus and Jacki Weaver.

The official logline for the show states, “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 crosshairs of both local police and organized crime.”
