Taghmaoui -- who played Caesar for a handful of episodes on ABC's island-set mystery -- will play Guillermo Ortiz, a smart Jesuit priest-turned-killing machine.
Campbell (Parenthood) will join his wife, Glee's Jayma Mays, at the network and recur as Tony Rigby, one of Calvin's (new regular Lukas Haas) closest friends and business partner.
Santiago will play Reuben Santiago, the resident hacker at BreakWire, the online news outlet where Sutherland's Martin works, who is friendly with his son, Jake (David Mazouz), and watches him while Martin is otherwise occupied.
