The recurring cast of Netflix‘s Trinity is taking shape with the addition of 7 actors: James Remar (It: Welcome to Derry, Dexter: Resurrection), Robert Wisdom (Barry, Terminal List), Bruce Greenwood (Fall of the House of Usher, The Resident), Kirk Acevedo (Lioness, Band of Brothers), Ben Cotton (The Night Agent, Harper’s Island), Jason Ralph (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, The Magicians) and Mark O’Brien (City on a Hill, Ready or Not).
They join the previously announced series regulars Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Richard Madden, Marcia Gay Harden and JD Pardo.
From showrunner, writer and executive producer Jed Mercurio, Trinity follows a heroic female Naval Officer who becomes involved with the outwardly charismatic Secretary of Defense, only to discover he may be at the heart of a dangerous conspiracy.
Mbatha-Raw stars as Commander Katherine Decker, second-in-command on the USS Kansas, a nuclear submarine and one of the deadliest weapons on Earth. Madden portrays Secretary of Defense Webb Preston, who has a technology background that sets him apart from most politicians. Webb’s innovation and purpose are seen as a threat in more ways than one. Harden will play Margaret Vandenburg, the CEO and matriarch of her family’s business empire, guiding them to become a prominent family with political ties. Pardo will play Tom Reyes, a Lieutenant Commander in the US Navy.
Greenwood will play Special Agent Eric Colby; Wisdom as Admiral Griff Tatum; Acevedo as Captain Jock Campbell; Cotton as Special Agent Jake Ryan; Remar as President Paul Barnard; Ralph as Brooks Vandenburg; O’Brien as Dr. Brian York.
In addition to Mercurio, executive producers of the eight-episode series include Jimmy Mulville for Hat Trick Mercurio and Wendy Mericle. Michael Cuesta will direct and executive produce the first and second episodes of the 20th Television-produced series.
