Roman is such a hot topic on ABC’s High Potential — but who should play the mysterious character?

High Potential, which premiered in September 2024, follows a high-potential intellectual named Morgan (Kaitlin Olson) who teams up with the LAPD to help solve murders. The season 1 finale confirmed that Morgan’s ex Roman was still alive after going missing for more than a decade. The only information Morgan — and all of Us — have is that her ex worked as an FBI informant and doesn’t trust the LAPD.

“On set we would all talk about [who we think could play Roman]. I think Jesse Williams would be cool,” Amirah J exclusively told Us Weekly about her potential onscreen father. “We said Michael Ealy. Whoever they cast is going to be great. I’m just excited to see who it is.”
