‘Veronica Mars’ Cast is Now at Seven

One week out from the start of production on the Veronica Mars movie and Rob Thomas has yet another casting announcement. This one should make Veronica Mars fans really happy…Francis Capra will be reprising his role as Eli ‘Weevil’ Navarro in the big screen adaptation of the popular TV series.

The cast now includes Capra, Kristen Bell, Chris Lowell, Percy Daggs III, Jason Dohring, Enrico Colantoni, and Steven Dengler.

Says Thomas: “Playing a wrong-side-of-the-tracks-kid in a town full of privileged peers, Francis found a terrific — and difficult — balance between tough and soulful. I couldn’t be happier that he’ll be back with us for the film.”
