This article contains spoilers For season 3 “Reachder”.

Season 3 of “Reacher” is finally here, And with him, the Tasting Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson) reaches another cast of colorful support. This time, the extraordinary of the military police who became a vagrant voluntary finds himself in Maine, where he saved a strange young man (Johnny Berchtold) from an attempted kidnapping and ends up accidentally killing a plainclothe police officer. Fortunately, the child’s father, Zachary Beck (Anthony Michael Hall), happens to be a big blow that is ready to help. Soon, Reforder finds itself in Semi-sur-Leade to a strange group which seems to do something much darker than its reason for being declared to sell carpets … or does it do it?

In reality, the abduction and death of the cop were a cunning. The prosecution and the people who have installed them are in wicks, the protagonist working as an infiltrated agent for the harsh like Susan Duffy. Reacher and Duffy have their own reasons for the risky infiltration mission, and although they work towards the same objective, their strong mentalities compete on occasion. Since RECHODERE has two seasons of character development to his credit, this configuration requires a lot of presence of the actor representing DUFFY. Fortunately, the show found Sonya Cassidy, who takes up the challenge with great experience in big television shows. Here’s why she may seem familiar to viewers.

The events of “humans” of AMC take place in a world where extremely human synth robots are common and assigned to all kinds of functions that range from manual work to medical work and certain unavailable tasks. This poses several ethical and social problems, especially since some of the synths are actually aware – and not always happy with their situation.

In 2016, Sonya Cassidy appeared in “Humans” season 2 as a Hester, a synth of the worn workers who became aware and joined forces with his ten years (Raphael Acloque), Max (Ivanno Jeremiah) and Synth Hybrid Leo (Colin Morgan). The group spends a large part of its time on the race and lost a member immediately. Due to his awakening of shock, his bad memories of humanity and fleeting life, Hester has trouble adapting to his new situation and soon develops a coldly burning hatred towards humanity. In a 2016 interview with International commercial timeCassidy analyzed the development of the character, and how she feels the dark direction of the Arc of the character of Hester rooted in realism:

“His newly acquired sensitivity [causes her to] Immediately feel the effect of memories (so far, data) of negligence and ill -treatment at the factory, in the hands of humans. In addition to that, one of his first experiences is that of being lied, chased and turned; resulting in ten death. Everything moves so quickly for this newly formed group that Leo and Max do not really have time to explain things to Hester, to reassure her that things can be different. It’s vital. Consequently, she must learn to survive and contribute according to these experiences. I think the result is a very human answer. “”

If you want a quick idea of ​​the Sonya Cassidy range, look at “Humans” back to back with its other AMC major program, “Lodge 49” – A Drame comedy created by Jim Gavin about Dud (Wyatt Russell), a Type of long beach beach surfer looking for a new direction in life and ends up joining a secret society. Of course, it is a very simple way to describe the multilayer (and often very funny) reflection of the series, which is anchored by touching characters and performances.

Cassidy plays Liz, Dud’s twin sister. His life is in at least as much disarray as that of his brother, because his past errors have slammed so many doors that she is stuck in a dead end while treating with the debt that their deceased father left. It was part of the main distribution of “Lodge 49” of 2018 to the cancellation of the program after its second season due to the drop in odds.

While the Critical Darling series has never had the chance to conclude according to its own conditions, Cassidy delivered a powerful performance. She paints an image of a powerful but slaughtered person, emphasizing the mental struggle of Liz with the subtle ways of the character in the series. Here is how she analyzed her character’s physics in a 2019 interview with the AV Club:

“She is a little minimized. Her life got up, put on makeup, will work, wearing an outfit. And then when she is not there, it is really to cover her body, to compete on the Sofa, but not really to take care of itself.

2022 was a busy year for Sonya Cassidy, who played major roles in no less than two television shows. The first was the historic drama of the BBC / Netflix “The Last Kingdom”, which is based on the series of books “The Saxon Stories” by Bernard Cornwell and partially covers the same land as the “Vikings” in history.

Cassidy joined the show in season 5 as an EDGIFU, which becomes a force majeure with which it is necessary to count during this last season – as well as the film in a row in 2023 “The Last Kingdom: Seven Kings Must Die” . Unfortunately for his fans, Cassidy did not come back to resume the role of “Seven Kings Must Die”, in which Elaine Cassidy rather plays the character. It was not because Cassidy did not appreciate the role either. On the contrary – in an interview in 2022 with Digital correctionCassidy revealed that the only reason behind his absence in “Seven Kings Must Die” was a problem with planning:

“It is with a heavy heart that I say no [to reprising the role]Due to a time conflict. I broke out on “the last kingdom”. I was a big fan of the show anyway, so it was really fun to join these guys in Beautiful Budapest. And I really liked this character, I really liked playing Eadgifu, but my time playing it was for season 5. Alas, someone else will pick up this baton. I am therefore happy that at least his story continues. In another world, I would have done it happily. But unfortunately, I couldn’t. “”

Sonya Cassidy’s other project of the Major of 2022 was “the man who fell on earth”, the science fiction drama Showtime of the creators Jenny Lumet and Alex Kurtzman. The show has a truly fascinating premise: it is a series of the 1967 film of the same name where David Bowie plays the holder “The man who fell on earth” – Aka Thomas Jerome Newton, a stranger who disguises himself as a human to undertake a secret mission (the one who takes the film in directions that the spectator could not see coming). In the TV suite, Bill Nighy takes over as Newton, while Chiwetel Etiofor plays a new foreign visitor known as Faraday. Names like Naomie Harris, Jimmi Simpson, Rob Delaney, Kate Mulgrew and, of course, Cassidy complete the key cast. The role of Cassidy is that of Edie Flood, a central character who leads a technological company with a surprising link with Newton and, therefore, is finally found at the negotiation table with a very surprising immigrant.

Unfortunately, it turned out to be a relatively short concert for Cassidy and the rest of the distribution. Rafael Motamayor De / Film of the film found that “The man who fell on earth” was a timely and fresh adaptation of a classic science fiction (You can read his full review here), this joy was short -lived, and the series did not receive a second season.

She has worked regularly since then, generally with at least one role major television on his plate. Cassidy also found time for faster the star of the guest in shows like the drama of BBC Jack the Ripper Mystery “Ripper Street” – and, in particular, Brett Goldstein and William Bridges’ AMC SCI -FI Anthology Series “Soulmates “, where she co-HEINTEL season 1, episode 2,” The Lovers “, with David Costabile.
