Yes. This day just keeps getting better. First Denise Richards goes "stripper" on us, and now this. Dania Ramirez, bombshell extraordinaire, will join the show next season as Maya, a new hero with new, undisclosed powers. Sounds pretty dope to me. Ramirez has had a significant amount of success over the last couple of years, with parts in The Sopranos, X-Men and more. Richardson will be one of 4-5 new characters on NBC's uber-hit series, but as of now she's the only one that has been scripted in for a regular, recurring, role. The other new roles will include a new boyfriend for Claire, a 28-year old black mother hat??), a surrogate for Niki's son, and an Irish mobster. Should be a damn good season.
