Brooklyn Nine Nine Adds Lin-Manuel Miranda As Amy's Brother

Actor Lin-Manuel Miranda will appear in an upcoming episode of Brooklyn Nine-Nine. According to Entertainment Weekly, Miranda will play Amy Santiago's brother, David Santiago, in the March 7 episode "The Golden Child." The episode will reportedly focus on their sibling rivalry.

Miranda was one of many celebrities who voiced their support for Brooklyn Nine-Nine following Fox's decision to cancel the show last year. NBC wasted no time in picking up the show, and the current 18-episode sixth season is airing now.

Miranda most recently starred in Disney's new Mary Poppins movie opposite Emily Blunt. He is perhaps known for creating hit Broadway shows Hamilton and In The Heights. He also co-wrote songs for the Moana soundtrack, which earned him an Academy award nomination.

Miranda has also appeared in TV shows like Curb Your Enthusiasm, Inside Amy Schumer, and BoJack Horseman, among many others.
