Season 3 of Invincible: Key New Characters Revealed

As the highly anticipated Invincible: Season 3 approaches, Prime Video has unveiled an exciting new roster of voice actors set to join the series. Among them are Aaron Paul as Powerplex, John DiMaggio as The Elephant, and Simu Liu as Dupli-Kate's brother, Multi-Paul. However, the most intriguing additions to the cast are Jonathan Banks and Doug Bradley, whose roles remain shrouded in mystery. Prime Video's decision to keep these roles under wraps suggests significant plot developments on the horizon for Season 3. Additionally, the rapid aging of Christian Convery's character, Oliver, raises questions about his role and impact on the series. Let's delve into the details of these key new characters expected to appear this season.

Warning: Some basic plot spoilers for the Invincible comic are included below!

Jonathan Banks as Conquest

Jonathan Banks, renowned for his role in Breaking Bad, is set to join Invincible: Season 3, though his character remains undisclosed by Prime Video. Given Banks' knack for portraying tough, battle-hardened characters, it's highly likely he will voice Conquest, a formidable Viltrumite villain introduced in Invincible #61 in 2009. Conquest is known for his exceptional strength and battle scars, embodying the essence of a Viltrumite warrior. His arrival on Earth follows a devastating conflict, delivering an ultimatum from the Viltrumite Empire: Mark Grayson, aka Invincible, must conquer Earth or face death at Conquest's hands. This sets the stage for a brutal confrontation, with Season 2 already hinting at Mark's impending challenge. As Mark grapples with his inexperience, the stakes couldn't be higher—his life and the fate of Earth hang in the balance.

Who Is Doug Bradley Playing in Invincible Season 3?

While Jonathan Banks is a strong candidate for Conquest, the role of Doug Bradley, famous for his portrayal of Pinhead in the Hellraiser series, remains a mystery. Given his history with iconic villains, Bradley is likely to voice another antagonist. Two potential characters stand out: Dinosaurus, introduced in Invincible #68 in 2009, and Grand Regent Thragg, who first appeared in Invincible #11 in 2004.

Dinosaurus, with his mission to heal the world from human civilization's toxic effects, could benefit from Bradley's distinctive voice, adding depth to this visually striking villain. His plan to destroy Las Vegas as a symbol of human excess highlights his complex motivations, which even Invincible comes to understand.

Alternatively, Bradley could be voicing Grand Regent Thragg, the ultimate antagonist of the Invincible saga. As the ruler of the Viltrumite Empire, Thragg's immense power and combat prowess make him a formidable foe. His introduction in the series could set the stage for Mark's ultimate challenge, and Bradley's menacing presence would be perfect for this role.

Christian Convery’s Oliver Grayson

Introduced in Season 2, Oliver Grayson, Mark's half-brother, is a unique blend of Thraxan and Viltrumite heritage, marked by his purple skin and accelerated aging. By Season 3, Oliver, now portrayed by Christian Convery, will appear as a preteen due to his rapid growth. His powers are already manifesting, far earlier than Mark's did, and he will adopt the codename Kid Omni-Man, eager to follow in his father and brother's heroic footsteps.

Oliver's role will be pivotal in the upcoming season, adding complexity to Mark's journey as he navigates his responsibilities as a hero and a mentor. With Oliver's powers and potential vulnerabilities, Mark faces new challenges in protecting his family and shaping his brother's future.

As Invincible: Season 3 promises to introduce these compelling new characters, fans eagerly await to see how their stories unfold. In other news, the Invincible franchise is expanding with the new prequel spinoff, Invincible: Battle Beast, set to be one of IGN's most anticipated new comics of 2025.
