Segarra will play Marco, “a commodities broker with exquisite phone skills” who is the son of Uncle Eugenio and Aunt Kathy. Handsome and charming, he thinks he might have found “the one” in Cora, though he’s not the most attentive boyfriend and is completely unaware that Dan is immediately smitten by his girlfriend.

Segarra plays Adrian Chase/Prometheus on the CW’s Arrow, which begins its eighth and final season October 15. He’ll next be seen starring alongside RuPaul Charles on Netflix’s anticipated dramedy AJ and the Queen and also will return to Comedy Central’s The Other Two in his recurring role of Lance. He recently was seen as C.O. Stefanovic on Netflix’s Orange Is the New Black. Segarra is repped by Abrams Artists Agency, ATA Management and Ryan LeVine at Jackoway Austen Tyerman.
