He recently guest starred on Showtime's Dexter: Original Sin, HBO's The Last of Us and Disney+'s Wonder Man.
- He will play Pino Bernardi, the head of the Manhattan Mafia. He is supremely self-assured and the epitome of the old adage, "speak softly and carry a big stick." He doesn't need to tell you he's a boss, because you know it already - bada bing, bada boom.

- Ming-Na Wen, Jennifer Beals and Hubert Smielecki will appear in the drama's upcoming third season.

- Wen will play Hera, the queen of Olympus, and wife to Zeus (Courtney B. Vance). She is the goddess of marriage and family so Zeus' infidelity rankles her. Regal, maternal and no-nonsense, she is the only god besides Zeus who has children who are also members on the Olympian council, which gives her leverage in the family politics.
- Beals will play Demeter, the goddess of agriculture, the harvest and the cycle of life and death. A respected sister of Zeus, she remembers the war against the Titans very well, and will do what she must to prevent the return of her father Kronos (Nick Boraine).
