Prime Video Unveils Invincible Season 3's New Voice Cast, Teasing Major Story Arcs
With Invincible: Season 3 on the horizon, Prime Video has announced a stellar addition to the voice cast. 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) are joining the cast, but their roles are yet to be revealed. This secrecy likely serves to protect significant plot developments in Season 3.
Speculation abounds regarding Banks and Bradley's characters. Considering Banks' expertise in portraying hardened villains, Conquest seems a likely candidate. This powerful Viltrumite, introduced in Invincible #61, presents a formidable challenge to Mark Grayson, setting the stage for a brutal confrontation. Season 2 hinted at this conflict, making it a highly anticipated event in Season 3.
Bradley's role is more ambiguous. His distinctive voice could suit either Dinosaurus, an environmentally conscious villain from Invincible #68, or Grand Regent Thragg, the primary antagonist of the Invincible saga (first appearing in Invincible #11). Dinosaurus, while visually cartoonish, presents a compelling moral dilemma, while Thragg, the powerful ruler of the Viltrumite Empire, represents a significant threat to Mark and Earth.
Another key figure in Season 3 is Oliver Grayson, Mark's half-brother. His accelerated aging, a result of his Viltrumite and Thraxa heritage, will be a central plot point. Christian Convery takes over the role, portraying Oliver's transition from toddler to preteen. Oliver's rapid power development and adoption of the "Kid Omni-Man" persona will significantly impact the narrative, adding both an ally and a potential vulnerability for Invincible.
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. It also mentions the upcoming Invincible: Battle Beast prequel comic.
