Invincible: The Most Important New Characters to Expect in Season 3
Invincible Season 3: New Voice Actors, Mysterious Villains, and a Growing Sidekick
Prime Video recently unveiled the impressive voice acting additions to Invincible's upcoming third season. Aaron Paul voices Powerplex, John DiMaggio portrays The Elephant, and Simu Liu lends his voice to Multi-Paul, Dupli-Kate's brother. However, the most intriguing additions remain shrouded in mystery: Jonathan Banks (Breaking Bad) and Doug Bradley (Hellraiser), whose characters are yet to be revealed. This secrecy likely serves to heighten anticipation for major plot developments.
Speculation abounds regarding Banks and Bradley's roles. Considering Banks' expertise in portraying hardened villains, Conquest seems a strong possibility. This powerful Viltrumite, introduced in Invincible #61, presents a formidable challenge for Mark Grayson, perfectly aligning with Banks' acting prowess. Season 2 already hinted at this confrontation, setting the stage for a pivotal battle in Season 3.
For Bradley, two compelling candidates emerge: Dinosaurus (Invincible #68) and Grand Regent Thragg (Invincible #11). Dinosaurus, while visually cartoonish, possesses a compelling motivation for environmental salvation, a role Bradley's distinctive voice could elevate. Alternatively, Thragg, the overarching antagonist of the Invincible saga, represents a significant addition, potentially foreshadowing Mark's ultimate conflict. His immense power and age make him an ideal candidate for Bradley's talents.
Another key element of Season 3 is the rapid aging of Oliver Grayson, Mark's half-brother. His accelerated growth, due to his Viltrumite-Thraxan heritage, transforms him from a toddler (Season 2) into a preteen (Season 3), necessitating a recast with Christian Convery. Oliver's emerging powers and adoption of the "Kid Omni-Man" moniker promise significant involvement, adding both an ally and a potential vulnerability for Mark.
The article concludes with a poll asking readers which villain they most anticipate seeing in Season 3, offering choices including Conquest, Dinosaurus, and Grand Regent Thragg, along with an "other" option. It also mentions the upcoming Invincible: Battle Beast prequel comic.
