His name’s Robert Wisdom, he’s best known from his work on The Wire (as Bunny), Prison Break (as Lechero), and Supernatural (as bad angel Uriel), and sources confirm to me exclusively he’s joining the cast of the USA smash as the latest thorn in Michael’s side.
According to a Burn insider, Wisdom will play — Alias flashback alert! — Vaughn, a veteran spy handler who works for the group that burned Michael. Possessing an impressive combination of high-end book smarts and real-world experience, he’s smart, world-weary, and ruthless.
The addition of Wisdom, who is on board for a minimum of six episodes, marks the second major piece of casting for Burn Notice‘s upcoming fourth season. Last week I reported that Third Watch‘s Coby Bell had been recruited as a new operative.
thats awesome oh yeah and first comment
I love that at the beginning Michael says a very not-nice way of saying “Welcome to Miami” in Spanish like he speaks it all the time, then recently….”Tu errrres…eeeeress? What’s Spanish for “no”, it’s still “no”, right?” Silly goose!
I LOVE HIM!!!!
Awesome on The Wire and Supernatural and Prison Break. I love when he shows up on my favorite shows.
He’s a fine actor and I’m sure he’ll fit right into the messed up world of Michael Westen – yay!!!
BUNNY COLVIN! HE’S THE MAN!
Great story! Lots of work went into this one. I appreciate that. I see so many story with little content. Come check out my story and let know what you think.
I’ll get around to it…
I love the fact that a lot of Wire stars are showing up on decent tv shows! Now if only Snoop could get cast in something
this is good, so Colby won’t be the ‘token’ …now if they would just add some Hispanophone regulars it might actually seem more authentically Miami …
Nobody cares how “exclusive” your info is. We just care that it is correct.
I love Coby,Bell he was good on The Series TheGame sitcom that’s his Them on their, don’t forget “Third Watch” glad to see him on the cast can’t wait.
That Guy is bad news for Michael & the Gang, looking forward to see Robert,Wisdom a bad Brother good Acting skills.
I’m really hoping Burn Notice breaks out of the formulaic season structure. It’s really killing the cool vibe the show had going for it when it first started.
Where have you been? This show has kept its cool vibe since the beginning!
Cool. Love Burn Notice. Oh and how I miss Alias and Michael Vartan’s Vaughn.
speaking of Alias, did you notice our boy Sark’s stint over on 24? HOT!
What is Burn Notice?
oh gosh that was actually one of the decent skits SNL has this season. It had me cracking up.
It is what you get when your boyfriend wants to break up with you.
Bunny Colvin starts a new version of Hamsterdam in Miami. Now we just need for Herc and Carver to patrol the streets looking for young hoppers to send to the new Hamsterdam but they better watch out for Chris and Snoop or Sam and Fiona.
Love Burn Notice over in the UK. Great news about the casting of Robert Wisdom. Now if FX in the UK can get their act together and start airing season 3 ASAP, all will be good in the world!
