"Season 3 of Invincible: Key New Characters Revealed"

As the highly anticipated Invincible: Season 3 approaches, Prime Video has unveiled a fresh roster of voice actors set to enrich the series. Notable additions include Aaron Paul as Powerplex, John DiMaggio as The Elephant, and Simu Liu voicing Dupli-Kate's brother, Multi-Paul. However, the spotlight shines brightest on the enigmatic announcements of Jonathan Banks from Breaking Bad and Doug Bradley of Hellraiser fame, whose characters remain under wraps. Prime Video's secrecy hints at significant plot developments in the upcoming season.

Speculation abounds about which characters Banks and Bradley might portray. Jonathan Banks, known for his portrayal of tough, no-nonsense characters, is likely to voice Conquest, a formidable Viltrumite warrior introduced in Invincible #61. Conquest's mission to enforce the Viltrumite Empire's will on Earth sets the stage for a brutal confrontation with Mark Grayson, aka Invincible. The groundwork for this epic battle was laid in Season 2, where Mark grapples with his father's legacy and the looming threat of Viltrumite conquest.

Doug Bradley, synonymous with the horror icon Pinhead, is expected to voice either Dinosaurus or Grand Regent Thragg. Dinosaurus, debuting in Invincible #68, aims to heal the planet from human-induced harm, presenting a complex antagonist with whom even Invincible empathizes. Bradley's voice could add depth to this character's mission. Alternatively, Thragg, the ruler of the Viltrumite Empire and a central villain in the saga, could be his role. Bradley's ability to convey menace and power would suit this character, who is poised to become Mark Grayson's ultimate adversary.

The introduction of Christian Convery as Oliver Grayson in Season 2 adds another layer to the narrative. Oliver, Mark's half-brother with Thraxan and Viltrumite heritage, exhibits rapid aging. By Season 3, Oliver transitions from toddler to preteen, showcasing his burgeoning powers. As Kid Omni-Man, Oliver steps into the superhero role, complicating Mark's journey as he balances mentorship with his responsibilities as Invincible.

Warning: some basic plot spoilers for the Invincible comic ahead!

Breaking Bad star Jonathan Banks joins the cast of Invincible: Season 3, though Prime Video keeps his character under wraps. Given Banks' knack for portraying grizzled, hardened killers, speculation points to him voicing Conquest, a Viltrumite warrior introduced in Invincible #61. Conquest, known for his strength and battle scars, arrives on Earth with an ultimatum from the Viltrumite Empire: Mark must conquer Earth, or Conquest will do it himself, leading to a fierce battle.

Who Is Doug Bradley Playing in Invincible Season 3?

While Jonathan Banks is likely to voice Conquest, Doug Bradley's role remains a mystery. Known for his portrayal of Pinhead, Bradley might voice Dinosaurus, who aims to restore the planet's health, or Grand Regent Thragg, the Viltrumite Empire's ruler and the series' ultimate antagonist.

Season 2 introduced Mark's half-brother, Oliver Grayson, who ages rapidly due to his Thraxan and Viltrumite lineage. By Season 3, Oliver, now portrayed by Christian Convery, is a preteen with emerging powers. As Kid Omni-Man, he follows in his father and brother's footsteps, adding complexity to Mark's journey as a hero.
