As Amazon prepares for the fourth and final season of Goliath, Entertainment Weekly has announced the show has made two new additions to the cast, with J.K. Simmons (Whiplash) and Bruce Dern (Nebraska) joining Billy Bob Thornton as series regulars and the season’s main antagonists.
Simmons plays George Zax, the “head of a family-owned and operated pharmaceutical company, one of the nation’s biggest”. Dern will portray Frank Zax, “George’s brother and the scientific genius and ostracized black sheep of the Zax family”.
Created by David E. Kelley and Jonathan Shapiro, the fourth and final season of Goliath will see Billy McBride (Thornton) taking on a case that tackles a timely global crisis impacting an entire generation.
