Barry’s Anthony Carrigan joins Twisted Metal’s second season

Anthony Carrigan, best known for his breakout role as NoHo Hank in HBO’s Barry, has lined up his : An antagonistic position in the second season of Peacock’s very odd comedy-action video game adaptation Twisted Metal. Carrigan will play Calypso, the creator of the show’s titular destruction derby, who was alluded to heavily in the show’s first season. The character is a big part of the original games, where he’s a sort of giddily evil wish-granting devil. (Feels like it’s in Carrigan’s wheelhouse.) The Barry star joins a cast that includes Anthony Mackie, Stephanie Beatriz, Neve Campbell, and Will Arnett. [William Hughes]
