The John Wick prequel The Continental has booked more guests for the event series. Per Deadline, the series has cast Katie McGrath (Supergirl), Ray McKinnon (Rectify), Adam Shapiro (Never Have I Ever), Mark Musashi (Fear of the Walking Dead) and Marina Mazepa (Malignant).
The group join Colin Woodell, who portrays a young Winston in 1970s New York and the founding of the Continental hotel that serves as neutral ground for assassins in the three-part event series.
McGrath will play The Adjudicator, a judge for the High Table. McKinnon will play a character named Jenkins, Shapiro as Lemmy and Musahi and Mazepa as High Table assassins Hansel and Gretel.
The Continental is set to “explore the origin behind the hotel-for-assassins, the centerpiece of the John Wick universe, through the eyes and actions of a young Winston Scott who is dragged into the Hell-scape of a 1975 New York City to face a past he thought he’d left behind. Winston charts a deadly course through the New York’s mysterious underworld in a harrowing attempt to seize the iconic hotel, which serves as the meeting point for the world’s most dangerous criminals.”
Featuring alongside Woodell in the The Continental are Hubert Point-Du Jour as Miles, Jessica Allain as Lou, Mishel Prada as KD, Nhung Kate as Yen, Mel Gibson as Cormac, and Ben Robson as Frankie. Also starring are Peter Greene (Training Day), Jeremy Bobb (Russian Doll) and newcomer Ayomide Adegun as a young Charon, the concierge of The Continental.
