Nicholas D'Agosto, also known for his previous roles in Final Destination 5 and Heroes, will be playing the character of Frank in the anticipated CBS comedy.
"Thank you to everyone for your excitement on my new gig at #HIMYDad!!! An amazing cast led by the magnificent Greta Gerwig!" wrote D'Agosto via his Twitter page on Sunday.
How I Met Your Dad stars Greta Gerwig as Sally in the show which according to its producers will tell its story in a way similar to its HIMYM counterpart except featuring new characters and with a lead female point of view.
Anders Holm of Workaholics and The Mindy Project was also cast earlier this week as the soon-to-be ex-husband of main character Sally, according to TVLine.
