With Invincible Season 3 on the horizon, Prime Video unveiled a stellar voice cast addition, including Aaron Paul as Powerplex, John DiMaggio as The Elephant, and Simu Liu as Multi-Paul, Dupli-Kate's brother. However, the most intriguing additions remain shrouded in mystery: Jonathan Banks (Breaking Bad) and Doug Bradley (Hellraiser), whose roles are yet to be revealed.
Prime Video's secrecy likely aims to preserve major Season 3 plot twists. But speculation is rampant! Who could Banks and Bradley be playing? And what about Christian Convery's rapidly aging Oliver? His accelerated growth promises significant changes, especially with Invincible gaining a new sidekick. Let's delve into the most anticipated new characters.
Warning: Minor comic book spoilers ahead!
Jonathan Banks as Conquest? --------------------------Jonathan Banks' casting is exciting, though his character remains undisclosed. His expertise in portraying hardened killers strongly suggests a villainous role. The prime candidate? Conquest.
Debuting in Invincible #61 (2009), Conquest is a Viltrumite, even stronger than many of his kind, bearing the marks of countless battles. He arrives after a devastating Earth conflict, presenting an ultimatum: Invincible conquers his homeworld for the Viltrumite Empire, or faces Conquest's wrath. This sets the stage for one of Mark Grayson's most brutal battles.
Doug Bradley's Invincible Role?
While Banks seems a perfect fit for Conquest, Bradley's role remains a mystery. Known for portraying Pinhead, his casting suggests another villain. Two strong contenders emerge:
Alternatively, there's Grand Regent Thragg (Invincible #11, 2004), the series' main antagonist. His absence from the animated series thus far makes his appearance highly anticipated.
Christian Convery's Oliver Grayson: A New Era
Season 2 introduced Oliver, Mark's half-brother, a half-Thraxan, half-Viltrumite hybrid. His accelerated aging is a key plot point; a toddler in Season 2, he'll be a preteen in Season 3, necessitating Christian Convery's casting. Oliver already displays powers surpassing Mark's at a similar age.
