Arturo Castro Tags Along On ‘Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk’
Arturo Castro (Broad City) has joined the cast of Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk, Ang Lee’s feature adaptation of the Ben Fountain novel. It follows a group of servicemen sent on a “victory tour” after returning from combat in Iraq. Billy Lynn and his comrades will return to battle after the tour ends with a halftime show of a Dallas Cowboys football game on Thanksgiving Day. Castro will play Marcellino “Mango” Montoya, a steady and skeptical member of Lynn’s Bravo Company who has become a pretty good amateur politician, speaking to Latino groups in Spanish in praise of military esprit de corps.
Castro plays Jaime on Comedy Central’s Broad City. Other recent credits include The Good Wife and features Sun Belt Express and Indigo Children. He next appears in Mi America, Kid Witness and Memoir. Castro is repped by Innovative Artists and Avalon Management.
