Unlike the previous two character posters (here) these
new ones featuring Vanessa Ives (Eva Green) and Ethan Chandler (Josh Hartnett)
look less troubled, or at least conformed with what's ahead of them in the
second season of Showtime's Penny Dreadful. In addition to the new character
posters a new standard poster has also been released and it features Vanessa
Ives apparently on the hunt with the tagline "no rest for the wicked".
Scheduled to premiere on May 3rd, the second season
will see the return of Eva Green, Josh Hartnett, Reeve Carney, Rory
Kinnear, Billie Piper, Harry Treadaway, Helen McCrory, and Simon Russell Beale,
but will also introduce Patti LuPone, Douglas Hodge, Sarah Green, and Johnny
Beauchamp to the show.
This season, Vanessa
and Ethan form a deeper bond as the group, including Sir Malcolm (Timothy
Dalton), Dr. Frankenstein (Harry Treadaway), and Sembene (Danny Sapani), unite
to banish the evil forces that threaten to destroy them. Meanwhile, Dorian Gray
(Reeve Carney), the Creature (Rory Kinnear) and Brona (Billie Piper) are all
waging battles of their own. Patti LuPone will guest star as a mysterious
character of great importance in Vanessa’s past. Helen McCrory returns as
Evelyn Poole (a.k.a. Madame Kali), the seductive spiritualist
who will pose a unique threat to our protagonists this season, along with
Simon Russell Beale, who is back as eccentric Egyptologist Ferdinand
Lyle. Additional guest stars include Douglas Hodge as a Scotland Yard
investigator; Sarah Greene as Poole’s powerful daughter, Hecate; and Johnny
Beauchamp as a man with a singular past.
