'iZombie' Season 2 Cast News: Colossus and a Basketball Player Join the Cast
Season 2 of "iZombie" is expected to premiere tomorrow with additions to the character list.
It was reported that the upcoming season of "iZombie" will be bringing in a new character. Former basketball player Rick Fox will be joining the cast as a retired basketball star named Calvin Owens. Reports state that his character will be one of the few people who last saw Harry Cole alive.
The character Harry Cole was reportedly murdered in front of Clive. With that, Liv is expected to meet Calvin during Harry Cole's wake.
Another character will also be joining the series. It was reported that Andre Tricoteux, who will be playing Colossus in the upcoming "Deadpool" movie, will be involved in next season. He will be taking on the role of a new henchman belonging to Blaine, played by David Anders.
Tricoteux recently shared details about his character in the series. He said, "My character's name is Chief, and I can't divulge too much, other than I work closely with Blaine, and I'm a complicated guy. Chief's a big onion, and every episode you're going to get a little layer peeled off, and he's going to be exposed a little more. I've got a really unique communication style, and I think 'iZombie' fans are going to really take to him, I hope. It's been a fun role to play."
The premiere of the season is titled "Grumpy Old Liv." The episode is expected to see Liv devour the brain of an old man, in order to learn more about how he died. Meanwhile, Liv will visit the home of Bryan Thistlewaite, played by Adam Rose, after receiving a phone call from an unknown contact.
"iZombie" season 2 is set to premiere on The CW this Oct. 6.
