Two more actors have been confirmed for the upcoming "Sons of Anarchy" spin-off series.

Maurice Compte and Carla Baratta are set to join the anticipated "Sons of Anarchy" spin-off, "Mayans MC." According to reports, Compte will portray a DEA agent whose job is to take down Miguel Castillo, the kingpin of the Galindo cartel. Everything is very personal for him because his pursuit of Miguel is driven by his own personal demons. Should "Mayans MC" get picked up for another season, Compte would continue to recur on the show. The actor's credits include "Breaking Bad," "Power," and "From Dusk Till Dawn: The TV Series."

Baratta, on the other hand, will take on the role of Carnalita. Traumatized as a child, she witnessed her family's death at the hands of the Galindo cartel. Now that she is an adult, she works to protect lost children orphaned by the violent cartel. The Venezuelan actress' other projects include "Prueba de Vida (Proof of Life)," "Alabaster," and "Bleep."

Meanwhile, series creator Kurt Sutter has been teasing fans with on-set photos of his new program. Sutter shared a photo on Instagram last week featuring him with some of the other cast members. Comic Book notes that Sutter was talking to Clayton Cardenas, who plays Angel Reyes, in the image.

"Mayans MC pilot. Day 13. The price of organics. @claytoncardenas #mayansmc," Sutter wrote in the caption.

Set after the events of the original program, "Mayans MC" centers on a prospect in the motorcycle club named EZ Reyes (JD Pardo). The story explores his struggles with his hunger for vengeance against the cartel, and his need for respect from his loved ones.

Angel is a member of the club who deals with being labeled as a huge disappointment. As a result, he only trusts a few people in his life. Also included in the previously announced cast are Edward James Olmos, Richard Cabral, Raymond Cruz, John Ortiz, Antonio Jaramillo, Jacqueline Obradors, Sarah Bolger, and Emilio Rivera.
