Edgar Ramirez
Edgar Ramirez will be starring in the upcoming Netflix series Florida Man, playing the character of Mike Valentine. The Venezuelan actor is best known for his role as Carlos the Jackal in the biopic series Carlos, a role that earned him a Cesar Award for Most Promising Actor at the 2011 Cesar Awards. Prior to joining the cast of Florida Man, Ramirez played parts in The Undoing, The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story, Ser bonita no basta, and Cosita Rica. On the big screen, he worked in The Last Days of American Crime, Yes Day, Jungle Cruise, and The 355. He’s set to appear in the movie adaptation of the video game Borderlands, which is currently in post-production.
Anthony LaPaglia
Anthony LaPaglia will be portraying Sonny Valentine, Mike’s father, in Florida Man. LaPaglia is a veteran actor who has appeared in TV shows like Halifax: Retribution, Rake, Bad Blood, Riviera, The Code, The Eichmann Show, and CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. On the big screen, he’s appeared in Nitram, Annabelle: Creation, The Assignment, This Isn’t Funny, A Month of Sundays, Big Stone Gap, A Good Marriage, and Mental. Aside from his acting career, LaPaglia has a few hobbies, including listening to music. In an interview with ABC, he said: “I love music and I listen to a lot of it but I’m not really an aficionado in the world of classical music. Pavarotti is easily accessible, this particular song I’ve always really loved and I’ve heard other opera singers take a shot at it and no one ever gets it quite like he does.”
Abbey Lee
Abbey Lee will be playing Delly West in the upcoming Netflix series Florida Man. She’s appeared in movies like Old, Elizabeth Harvest, Welcome the Stranger, The Dark Tower, and most recently, The Forgiven. Florida Man will be Lee’s second TV project; she previously starred in the 2020 HBO series Lovecraft Country, playing the role of Christina Braithwaite. In an interview with Vulture, she talked about how she is able to choose the role she plays, saying that her past life as a model plays a factor in how she decides her next projects. “I’m financially stable, because I modeled for half of my life, so I don’t have to make decisions based on money. I can really sort of craft my way a little bit. And listen, it’s not easy. I’m not saying I get handed everything that’s out there. I’ve had some pretty heavy heartaches the past couple of years, and I’ve really tried and gone gung ho, but there has to be something that’s really exciting to me. It’s so rare for a woman to be handed a script that has this much gusto, where the female character is driving the film in a really sort of violent way. Like, I got to hold a gun and bleed from the mouth and crawl out of a tank covered in ooze.”
Otmara Marrero
Otmara Marrero will be playing Patsy, Mike’s sister, in Florida Man. She is best known for her previous roles in StartUp, Off The Rails, Clementine, Connecting…, and Jackass Forever.
