Fans of the show were quick toexpress their excitement and delight, sharing their positive reactions to this explosive season opener.InvincibleSeason 3 has been confirmed, and creator Robert Kirkman teased that it will raise the already high standards set by the first two seasons to the next level.
“I’ve seen animatics of every episode (in season 3). So I’ve seen things moving. I’ve seen the actors all edited together. I’ve seen our amazing directing crew and all the board artists have some form of the show together. And so I’ve seen the entire season in rough form, laid out. I’ve seen all the movements I’ve seen where the season ends up and it’s really cool. Like I say, it, it’s an escalating show.
Season one was where it’s at, season two is where it’s at. Season three is a little bit higher. And so it’s tough talking about season three now because no one’s seen season two yet, but it’s really cool being as far along as we are and having the confidence to know, ‘Oh, you like season one? If you like season one, you’re going to love season two and if you really love season two, you’re really, really going to love season three.’ So yeah, we have that kind of like broad view of what we’ve been doing behind the scenes. And so now it’s just a process of wrapping it all up so we can finally share it with the world.”
The cast of season 2 includes Steven Yeun, Seth Rogen, J.K. Simmons, Sandra Oh, Zazie Beetz, Grey DeLisle, Chris Diamantopoulos, Walton Goggins, Gillian Jacobs, Jason Mantzoukas, Ross Marquand, Khary Payton, Zachary Quinto, Andrew Rannells, and Kevin Michael Richardson.
