We all rejoiced when our favourite Deadite killer and his merry band got awarded a second season, and now ahead of filming in Auckland later this year, Sam Raimi has announced some new cast members.
First up is Lee Majors as Ash’s Dad, Brock Williams. Finding the the right father of Bruce Campbell’s Ash, you need to begin with the chin, and the former Six Million Dollar Man fits that bill.
Also added to the cast, and this should come as no surprise to any Raimi fans, is Sam’s brother Ted. He starred in (and got gruesomely killed in) the original Evil Dead movies, and will be playing the part of Ash’s childhood friend. I am sure his character will get to live a long and happy life.
