Why Roy From Chicago P.D. Looks So Familiar

It seems like every actor these days needs to appear in a superhero property. They're just so ever-present in the modern media landscape that there are numerous opportunities to land a part, even if you don't get a chance to wear a cape yourself. After a small role on "Iron Fist," Michael Maize switched from Marvel to DC with a brief recurring role on "Gotham." He portrays Grady Harris, who's a part of Merton's (Michael Buscemi) gang. Yes, it should come as no surprise that Maize has once again played a bad guy. It's kind of his schtick. 

Maize spoke with Grue Monkey about the long, arduous process of getting cast on the series: "I have auditioned for 'Gotham' a few times, but the right fit had not presented itself yet. Bowling Miscia is the casting office for Gotham. They had already cast me in 'Blue Bloods' and 'Mr. Robot' at the time, so they were familiar with my work. I recorded the audition myself at my house in Los Angeles and then sent it into casting through my agents. The rest is magic!"

One thing's certain: Wherever there are bad guys up to no good, Michael Maize likely won't be too far behind.
