Rory Kinnear who played The Creature in the original show is confirmed to be returning as an apparently new character
Dr. Peter Craft is a successful German paediatrician and the head of the German-American Bund, an organization he hopes will keep the United States isolated from the growing threat of war in Europe
Very interesting they're bringing back an original cast member as somebody new. If I remember correctly, in the original show they had Patti Lupone's second role be a descendent of her first so I wonder if they connect Rory's characters somehow
Other cast additions:
Nathan Lane (Timon!) as Lewis Michener. A veteran officer in the LAPD, wise to the ways of the world and ruthless in pursuit of his goals, Lewis becomes the partner and mentor of fellow cop Tiago Vega.
Adriana Barazza as Maria Vega, the powerful matriarch of the Vega family, who will go to any lengths to protect her children from the dangerous world of 1938 social politics, as well as from the chilling supernatural forces invading their lives.
