With the third season of Amazon’s The Boys currently in development, the hugely popular superhero series has continued to round out its ever-growing cast.
According to Variety, the series has added Laurie Holden, who is perhaps best known for her role as Andrea in The Walking Dead, as Crimson Countess, a supe who is affiliated with Vought International. In the comics, Crimson Countess is a member of the superhero group known as Payback – which was named as the second most powerful superhero team and was a parody of Marvel’s The Avengers.
Holden will star alongside the other new additions of Jensen Ackles (Supernatural) as Soldier Boy, Katia Winter (Blood & Treasure, Sleepy Hollow) as villain Little Nina, Sean Patrick Flanery (Dexter) as Gunpowder, Nick Wechsler (Revenge) as Blue Hawk, and Miles Gaston Villanueva (Law & Order: True Crime: —The Menendez Murders) as Supersonic.
Expected returnees include Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Tomer Capon, Laz Alonso, Karen Fukuhara, Antony Starr, Dominique McElligott, Erin Moriarty, Jessie Usher, Nathan Mitchell, Chace Crawford, Claudia Doumit, Colby Minifie and Giancarlo Esposito.
