EW has confirmed that Enrico Colantoni has landed a recurring role on iZombie as Lou Benedetto, a vice detecive whose cases will lead him to interact with Liv. Of course, Colantoni is no stranger to detective roles, having played a P.I. — not to mention, Veronica’s father — on Rob Thomas’ Veronica Mars.
