Additional heavy-hitting additions to the cast include Edgar Ram\u00edrez as DEA second-in-command Miguel Contreras, alongside Harry Melling, Adam Nagaitis, and Aminah Nieves.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But it\u2019s the addition of Julianne Nicholson to the cast that has raised eyebrows. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why?
