Robert Kirkman’s new show Outcast has recently added six familiar faces into the cast. Among the new cast members are David Denman (The Office), Melinda McGraw (NCIS), Grace Zabriskie (Twin Peaks), Bret Spiner (Star Trek: The Next Generation), Lee Tergesen (The Americans), and Catherine Dent (The Shield).
Outcast follows the life of Kyle Barnes (Patrick Fugit), a man who has been afflicted with demonic possession since childhood. The show, based on the popular comic is focused on Barnes’ spiritual journey to find answers, which could lead to the end of the world as we know it. He is usually accompanied by Reverend Anderson, a priest with a dark past. Here are the character breakdowns of the new cast:
– David Denman will play Mark Holter, who is married to Kyle’s sister Megan. He loves his job as a police office almost as much as his family.
– Zabriskie portrays Mildred, a bitter and outspoken old lady at Reverend Anderson’s church.
– McGraw will take on the roll of Patricia MacCready, a single mother and active member of the church.
– Bret Spiner takes on the roll of Sidney, who appears in Rome following an exorcism by Kyle and the Reverend.
– Tergesen will be Blake Morrow, a former cop on death row for killing his partner’s wife.
– Finally, Dent plays Janet Anderson, Reverend Anderson’s ex-wife. Although being separated from the Reverend for his dealings in demonic possession, Janet still holds affection him.
Outcast is set to premiere on Cinemax in 2016. Let us know who you’re most excited to see in the comments below!
