4 November 2010,
Mark Dacascos, best known as the Chairman on "Iron Chef America" and as a contestant on "Dancing With the Stars" last year has been cast as Wo Fat, who was the long-time nemesis of McGarrett in the original series. Though the character only appeared in 11 episodes over the original show's 12 seasons, he is remembered as the big bad of the show.

There's no word yet on when Dacascos will make his first appearance as Wo Fat on the new "Hawaii Five-0" or how the character might differ from the original, who was a Chinese intelligence officer.
