Creation

On August 6, 2014, Van Der Beek was cast as Mundo, described as "a savant when it comes to weaponry, vehicles and bombs. A self-proclaimed action junkie, [who] will often put himself at risk to seek permanent justice, while Ryan will level his die-hard behavior with her expertise in psychology."[1]

Speaking about his role to Time, James said "I feel like I signed with the New York Yankees. I feel like I’m wearing pinstripes to work everyday. It’s probably the biggest franchise in all of television right now."[2]

Background

Elijah was a U.S. Marine. He has a daughter named Michelle with his ex-wife, Devon Atwood.

Storylines

In "Kidnapping 2.0", Elijah is first seen playing an arcade game. Elijah travels with Avery, Brody (Shad Moss) and Daniel Krumitz to Baltimore to investigate a missing baby. It then was discovered that they were investigating a baby-trafficking ring. In the climax of the case, when two perps drove their car into a lake, Elijah swam to rescue the baby.
In "CMND:\Crash", Elijah finds it difficult to live without his daughter full-time. During the crime, Mundo stops a bomb from blowing up a train by risking his life by stopping it underneath the train.
In "Fire Code" Elijah is upset to learn that Devon wants to take Michelle to San Diego full-time.
In "URL Interrupted", Mundo helps Avery find a missing teenage girl who is being bullied.
In "Family Secrets" Mundo leads the operation to save Avery from the hands of stalker, Logan Reeves.
In "Why-Fi", Mundo discovers that his father has cancer but is refusing treatment for the cancer.

gollark: There's one nearbyish. It worries me that there's seemingly sensitive data being sent unencrypted over pagers.
gollark: I've got an RTL-SDR, which is pretty neat. It can receive stuff on basically any frequency between 30MHz and 1.7GHz, although not particularly well without optimized antennas and amplifiers and stuff.
gollark: I was vaguely interested in getting a license, but COVID-19 came along.
