Why Luis Acosta from Vampires vs. The Bronx is familiar – Looper

Earlier this year, Diaz appeared in an episode of NBC's medical drama New Amsterdam. The series follows a new medical director on his path to fix the American health system, at least within the walls of his New York hospital.

Diaz played a 13-year-old patient with a tumor caused by the stress hormone cortisol, which worried his mother and the doctors caring for him. They all wonder: By what could a 13-year-old possibly be stressed? After a series of questions and a survey, Head of Psychology Dr. Iggy Frome (Tyler Labine of Tucker and Dale vs Evil) concluded that perpetual racism had caused him so much distress, it had manifested tumors in his body.

While Diaz's character struggled with how to cope with racism in New Amsterdam, it seems we may just be lucky enough to see him fight the physical manifestation of that evil in Vampires vs The Bronx.
