Y&R's Miles Gaston Villanueva cast on CW's Jane the Virgin

The Young and the Restless' Miles Gaston Villanueva (Luca Santori) is giving comedy a try as a guest star on the CW sitcom Jane the Virgin.

A little time in Genoa City can make a person go bananas for some levity. Or so it seems, as Justin Hartley (Adam Newman) is heading to the primetime dramedy This Is Us, and now comes word Miles Gaston Villanueva (Luca Santori) is heading to the CW comedy Jane the Virgin.

The actor took to social media to announce that he has landed a guest-starring role on the sitcom, posting both a photo of himself with series star Gina Rodriquez and another of him behind the scenes in the hair and makeup room.

There's no word yet on exactly when Villanueva will be appearing on Jane the Virgin, but he revealed to Michael Fairman that his episode will most likely air on Monday, October 17. "What I play is a secret," he teases. "I could be a rival, a cousin, a brother -- you'll have to tune in and see!"
