Fargo: Six More Added to Season 3 Cast

It’s getting crowded with great actors up there in the Upper Midwest.

FX announced six more additions to the "Fargo" Season 3 cast:





* Michael Stuhlbarg (Boardwalk Empire), will play Sy Feltz, the right-hand man to Minnesota real-estate mogul Emmit Stussy (Ewan McGregor).


* Scoot McNairy (Halt and Catch Fire), will play ex-con stoner Maurice LeFay.


* Shea Whigham (Boardwalk Empire), will play police chief Moe Dammick.


* Karan Soni (Blunt Talk), will play scientist Dr. Homer Gilruth.


* Fred Melamed (Lady Dynamite), will play Howard Zimmerman, “a mover and a shaker with a knack for spinning a yarn and turning a profit.”


* Thomas Mann (The Middle), will play sci-fi author Thaddeus Mobley.







A nerdy Coen brothers connection to point out: Stuhlbarg and Melamed co-starred together in the Coens’ 2009 drama A Serious Man. (The first of many Coen brothers connections we’ll find in Season 3, we’re sure.)

And of course, the Season 3 cast is already stacked with Ewan McGregor (playing twins!), Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Carrie Coon, Jim Gaffigan and David Thewlis.

Season 3 is scheduled to debut in spring 2017, but no premiere date has been set.
