Esai Morales, who most recently played Maj. Edward Beck in the CBS series "Jericho," has been cast to play Joseph Adama -- the father of William Adama -- in the upcoming "Battlestar Galactica" prequel "Caprica."
The elder Adama, according to The Hollywood Reporter, is described as a "deeply passionate man with a strong sense of justice -- and someone you wouldn't want as your enemy."
In "Battlestar Galactica," Joseph is said to be a lawyer, but in reported story treatments for the SciFi Channel backdoor pilot, Adama brings his family to Caprica and changes his name to "Adams" to hide his heritage. He befriends the Graystone family, who creates what will eventually become the Cylons.
