Fox is bringing back Fantasy Island on August 10th. Today, they announced who will be playing Mr. Roarke, and it is Rosalyn Sanchez.
According to Fox, Elena Roarke, a descendant of Mr. Roarke, will “set aside her own ambitions, and even the love of her life, to uphold her family’s legacy. Sophisticated, insightful and always charming, Elena’s calm exterior masks the challenges of the responsibilities she has assumed as steward of this mysterious island.”
Sanchez will be joined by Kiara Barnes as Ruby Okoro, a woman with a terminal illness who gets a different fate on the Island. They will share the island John Gabriel Rodriquez as Javier; he is the pilot and the answer to all of their problems.
If you have never seen the original series, you can stream all of the seasons for both the original show and the remake on Tubi TV starting this Friday.
