Hey, remember that guy you liked on that show who you thought was going to become a big star but never got the break he deserved? Well, according to the Hollywood Reporter, two of television's "that guys" are finally getting their chance.

Amaury Nolasco, who is probably best known to audiences as Fernando Sucre on 'Prison Break,' and who also has been putting in time on shows like 'Southland' and feature films like the upcoming 'Armored,' will be joining the cast of 'The Quickening,' a new pilot for A&E. He'll be playing the ex-husband of fellow-detective Maggie Bird (Radha Mitchell), who is relegated to deskwork after she develops bipolar disorder.Hey, remember that guy you liked on that show who you thought was going to become a big star but never got the break he deserved?

Also getting a chance at the spotlight is Ethan Embry, who played quintessential "that guy" Declan Giggs on the Showtime series 'Brotherhood'. This time around Embry will be co-starring in 'Facing Kate', where he will play a stay-at-home dad and confidant to his attorney sister ('Life''s Sarah Shahi, who will play the title role of Kate).

Movie fans will also remember Embry from his work in a number of mid-to-late '90s flicks, including 'Empire Records,' 'That Thing You Do!' and 'Can't Hardly Wait.'

Okay, so neither of them are actually going to be the primary star of their pilots, but there's nothing wrong with getting second billing. After all, it's just another rung up the ladder for "that guy".
