Landon Gimenez could be making his haunting television debut in the near future…

The young Latino actor has landed a lead role in ABC’s drama pilot The Returned, which will also feature Nicholas Gonzalez.

The project, written by Aaron Zelman and directed by Charles McDougall, chronicles the forever-changed lives of the people in Arcadia when their deceased loved ones return from the dead.

Gimenez will portray Jacob, one of “the returned.”

It’s the first television project for Gimenez, who has appeared in dance projects for the Laeral Dance Academy and the Missouri City Ballet.
