Award-winning actor Bobby
Cannavale is joining the third season of Sam Esmail's USA Network drama Mr.
Robot as a series regular.
Details on Cannavale's character are being kept under wraps. The actor won an Emmy for his performance as Gyp Rosetti in
Boardwalk Empire.
In other Mr. Robot news, BD
Wong, who plays Whiterose, the leader of the Chinese hacking organization known
as The Dark Army, has been upped to a series regular role.
"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," added Jeff Wachtel, Chief
Content Officer, NBC Universal Cable Entertainment.
Just as with season
two, Esmail will direct all ten episode of the new season.
"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 of NBC UCE in a statement. "We’re eager to share the
next phase of Elliot’s journey with fans this fall."
Mr. Robot returns in
October.
