CBS’ “Elsbeth” is lining up more guest stars as Season 3 gets underway:
- Steve Buscemi (Wednesday, Boardwalk Empire) will play Simon, described as a “five-time crossword champion and this year’s favorite to win again. An obsessive perfectionist, Simon winds up in a deadly battle with the puzzle’s longtime editor over pop culture clues and a certain female contestant.”
- Hamish Linklater (Gen V) will play Archer Bryant, “a tech-entrepreneur turned fitness freak with a quest to live forever. That requires a strict diet, exercise, pharmaceutical, sleep regimen and possibly murder.”
- Jeff Hiller (Somebody Somewhere) will play Felix, “one of New York’s big wigs, the top wigmakers in the city. Consigned to creating toupees for Wall Street execs and medical patients, Felix dreams of more glamorous assignments. When his ambition leads to some very bad decisions, one of his rivals ends up dead.”
