Exclusive: ABC's Body of Proof Pairs Dana Delany With Last Airbender's Fire Lord Ozai
Trauma actor Cliff Curtis is joining the cast of ABC's Dana Delany-led midseason drama Body of Proof in a recurring capacity, sources confirm to me exclusively. Curtis -- who also appeared in The Last Airbender as the evil Fire Lord Ozai -- will play Derek Ames, a top forensic consultant for the FBI and a potential love interest for Delany's divorced medical examiner.
ABC has yet to assign a premiere date for Proof. The procedural was originally set to air on Fridays at 9 pm, but the network delayed its launch in order to find a stronger time slot.
Michael Ausiello will be contributing to Movieline.com and Deadline.com as he preps for the January launch of a new TV-centric website.

I liked him in both Trauma and The Last Airbender. I feel he was in something else I liked too... I'm still on the fence about this show, but this sounds like good casting to me.
Are there any plans for Cliff to be on again? I am watching him now on Missing but it is only going to be on 10 episodes. Hope Cliff is back on "Body" after that.
