NEW YORK, NY (September 14, 2016) - VH1 announced today that Emmy nominated actress, Gloria Reuben will join the "The Breaks" in a recurring role. The series is slated to premiere January 2017.

Inspired by The Big Payback, a narrative history of the hip-hop business written by journalist Dan Charnas, "The Breaks" is executive produced by Seith Mann ("The Wire," "The Walking Dead," "Homeland") and John J. Strauss ("Mozart in the Jungle").

A two time Emmy-nominee for Best Supporting Actress, Gloria Reuben's acting credits include "ER," "Lincoln," and "Mr. Robot." On stage, Reuben's portrayal of Condoleezza Rice in David Hare's play "Stuff Happens" at The Public Theater in NYC garnered her a Lucille Lortel Award for Best Actress. She was an Executive Producer of the 2007 Sundance Film Festival Grand Jury Prize winner "Sangre de Me Sangre." Reuben is repped by Atlas Artists and APA.

She joins a cast that includes: Afton Willamson (HBO's "The Night Of... "), Wood Harris ("The Wire"), Mack Wilds ("90210"),Antoine Harris ("Ballers"), David Call ("The Magicians") and Evan Handler ("Sex and the City"), Melonie Diaz ("Fruitvale Station"),Sinqua Walls ("Power") and Ali Ahn ("Billions").
