Justified - Season 3 - Casting News - Neal McDonough and Mykelti Williamson to star

11 Oct 2011

Share on Reddit
Fans of FX’s Justified have been wondering since May’s second season finale how producers would match Margo Martindale’s Emmy-winning performance as Mags Bennett. Well, now we know: Desperate Housewives‘ Neal McDonough and 24‘s Mykelti Williamson, who both starred on Justified EP Graham Yost’s brilliant-but-canceled NBC drama Boomtown, have been cast as the big bads of season 3. McDonough will recur as Quarles, a Detroit mobster in a sharp suit who comes to Kentucky with visions of becoming a crimelord. Williamson will play Limehouse, a man who lives in a small black town in Harlan County and who will do whatever it takes, legal or otherwise, to protect his holler.

We’ll meet both characters early in season 3, which premieres in January. The show — which also earned Emmy nominations for stars Timothy Olyphant and Walton Goggins and guest actor Jeremy Davies, who also returns — began production on the first of 13 new episodes Monday.

    I think I'm more excited for Mykelti Williamson than McDonough honestly. McDonough is VERY hit or miss for me and even when I like him it's more the character than him usually. 

    Mykelti Williamson I have liked since I saw him on Boomtown and Kidnapped. He has that gravitas that many actors just do not have and cannot fake.

    Nicely done in the casting dept. and very jazzed to see that Jeremy Davies will be back to presumably stir things up in his own way!

    Yay for Mykelti Williams.  Meh for Neal McDonough.  This should give Williams a chance to dust off his southern accent.  It has been a while since Gump.

    Mags Bennet was a terrific character.  Margo Martindale's performance will be difficult to match.  Looking forward to season 3 (with Bubba Gump) just as soon as I finish season 2.  


    I hope this show goes on for many many seasons.
