'Salem' season 3 spoilers, news: Character posters, first look at newcomer Samuel Roukins as The Sentinel revealed, Will Mary come back to defeat the devil?
The spellbinding story of "Salem" continues in the Fall, and new cast photos for season 3 have been recently released.
WGN America revealed the latest character photos for the twisted and scary third season, including the first look at the latest cast addition Samuel Roukin's character. He will play the role of The Sentinel, a fallen angel who serves as the protector of the Devil boy (Oliver Bell).
Joining Roukin as a newcomer is rock singer/producer Marilyn Manson. He will portray the evil barber/surgeon Thomas Dinley who serves as the town's go-to man for everything from a simple shave or haircut to being leeched or sliced open. He will become an ally to the devil, but he might have other motives on his own. Aside from acting in the series, Manson also co-produced the show's theme song titled "Cupid Carries a Gun."
To recap, the second season left off with the unexpected death of the powerful witch Mary Sibley and her former ally Tituba after being viciously attacked by a pack of crows. Thanks to Mary's sacrifice, she was able to bring John Alden back to life. Unfortunately, Mary and John's son John Jr. became the devil's new vessel.
Season 3 picks up with the witches finally achieving their plan to remake the New World by inviting the devil to earth and allowing him to make Salem his capital. Unfortunately, they will not know that the devil is just fooling them for his own gain. Instead of freeing the New World from Puritan hypocrisy, his true plan involves killing and enslaving everyone until the whole humanity destroys itself. The fate of humanity lies in the hands of the sole person on earth who can defeat the devil—the very witch that birthed him—his own mother Mary Sibley.
The third season of "Salem" premieres on Wednesday, Nov. 2 on WGN America.
