Megalyn Echikunwoke Joins Cast of CSI Miami
Last month she was announced as recurring cast member but now she’s series a regular. Echikunwoke’s character medical examiner Dr. Tara Price makes her first appearance in the second ep of the season.
“Megalyn Echikunwoke is an exciting addition to CSI: Miami,” Ann Donahue, one of the series’ executive producers, said about the new cast member “She brings savvy and humor to her role of Dr. Tara Price, a young medical examiner whose methods are on the cutting edge of technology.”
Megalyn is replacing Khandi Alexxander who left the series last season. It’s been rumored that Alexx will still turn up from time to time. It should be fun to see how these two interact. I don’t know a lot about the Tara price character.
Echikunwoke portrayed Nicole Palmer in the first season of 24, and is also appeared in The 4400. .
