T2 WHATS UP! June 23 - 29, 2019 Season 3 trailers also have viewers in a tizzy because of their introduction of an iconic X- Men character. "Game of Thrones" alum Harry Lloyd, best known for his role as Vis- erys Targaryen in the HBO hit, has been cast as Prof. Xavier, whom viewers see in flashbacks in "Legion's" early Season 3 teas- ers. Haller's mother will be por- trayed by Danish actress Stepha- nie Corneliussen ("Mr. Robot"). Also new to Season 3 is Lauren Tsai ("Terrace House: Aloha State"), who joins the cast as Switch, a mutant whose time- traveling abilities are key to Haller's ultimate plan to undo the damage he's done. Fans of "Legion" will be happy to see several familiar faces from the first two seasons of the show. Favorite Aubrey Plaza ("Parks and Recreation") returns as Len- ny Busker, Haller's best friend. Though she died in Season 1, Farouk later gave her a new body. Rachel Keller portrays Haller's girlfriend, Syd Barrett, a mutant with the unique ability to switch bodies with others by touching them. Keller was cast in "Legion" after her breakout role in Hawley's "Fargo," which also starred fellow "Legion" cast member Jean Smart ("Designing Women"). Smart played Melanie Bird, a demanding psychiatric therapist at Summerland, for the first two seasons of the show. The supporting cast also in- cludes Bill Irwin ("Law & Or- der: Special Victims Unit") as Cary Loudermilk, a mutant scientist and one of the found- ers of Summerland. He and fellow mutant Kerry Louder- milk (Amber Midthunder, "Roswell, New Mexico") co- exist within the same body most of the time. While they can take separate physical forms when they need to, Ker- ry only ages when outside of Cary's body, leaving her much younger than her counterpart. Mutant Ptonomy Wallace (Jeremie Harris, "Blue Bloods") serves as Bird's memory spe- cialist, thanks to his ability to remember everything and transport people back into their own memories. Hamish Lin- klater ("The New Adventures of Old Christine") rounds out Dan Stevens stars in "Legion" continued on page T10 TV FEATURE A/Health Initiatives 2 x 5 Have you or a loved one been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease?
