'How To Get Away With Murder' Cast News, Spoilers: Three Actors Signed In For 'Big' Arc; Is Annalise OK?
Things are about to get even more interesting and complicated when ABC's hit legal drama TV series "How TO Get Away With Murder" returns to the small screens next month.
According to the recent casting report from TVLine, the network announced the arrival of three new clients who Annalise Keating (Viola Davis) will be dealing with next.
As detailed, the newcomers will be portrayed by "Hart of Dixie" and "The Astronaut Wives Club" star Wilson Bethel; "Chicago Hope" and "Sons of Anarchy" star Adam Arkin; and "Hung" actress Roxanne Hart.
Arkin will be playing the role of Wallace Mahoney, who TVLine describes as a "Warren Buffet type who's quiet and observant, but knows how to command a room when he chooses," He is married to Hart's alter-ego, Sylvia, who is described as a "tough yet distinguished and smart socialite." Bethel will be playing their Ivy League-educated son, Charles.
The Mahoney family is slated to be introduced down Season 2B and, according to the media outlet, might be retained for the show's yet-to-be-confirmed Season 3.
Creator and executive producer Peter Nowalk further told TVLine that the newcomers, who are apparently wealthy but are involved in a murder case, will be playing a "really big part" in the development of the show's remaining six episodes. The showrunner further clarified that the Mahoneys are not connected to any of Prof. Keating's previous clients or with her acolytes as well.
Speaking of the law professor, Davis spoke about the fate of her character. According to her, "Annalise is fine."
"Listen, Annalise is working it out like we are all working it out," the multi-awarded actress said in an interview.
The rest of Season 2's second-half will reportedly answer a lot of questions but fans better brace themselves for more new queries. Davis went on to tease that as the show nears the season finale, all loose ends will be tied up but from it springs new head-scratching moments.
"How To Get Away With Murder" Season 2B returns to ABC this Feb. 11. Stay tuned for more updates.
