There was already gravitas on USA’s award-winning show "Mr. Robot", but now the stakes will get even greater: Emmy-winning actor Bobby Cannavale will star in season 3 of Sam Esmail’s USA network series as a series regular.
In other news, BD Wong, who plays Whiterose, the enigmatic transgender leader of the Chinese hacking org The Dark Army, is being elevated to a series regular role.
But "Mr. Robot" fans will have to wait until October for season 3, which will play out over 10 episodes. The previous two seasons launched during July.
“Sam Esmail is a true creative visionary who continues to deliver a series that boldly tackles timely issues and leans into the major headlines of the day,” said Chris McCumber, President, Entertainment Networks for NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment in a statement. “We’re eager to share the next phase of Elliot’s journey with fans this fall.”
“Season 3 of Mr Robot will engage viewers in a whole new way, with Sam and team continuing to find ways to surprise, challenge and delight the audience. And adding Bobby Cannavale and BD Wong to our cast makes one of the tightest acting ensembles even stronger,” said Jeff Wachtel, Chief Content Officer, NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment.
