Netflix just sent us four more new character stills from “The Killing,” which premieres exclusively on Netflix on August 1.
Joel Kinnaman will return for a final season, along with his partner, Sarah Linden (Mireille Enos).
In the slow-burn series, a police investigation, the saga of a grieving family, and a Seattle mayoral campaign all interlock after the body of 17-year-old Rosie Larsen is found in the trunk of a submerged car.
“The fourth and final season of ‘The Killing’ picks up right after the season 3 finale. As Detective Linden (Mireille Enos) and Detective Holder (Joel Kinnaman) struggle to manage the fallout from their rash actions at the end of last season, they are assigned a new case — a picture perfect family is murdered, survived only by the son, Kyle Stansbury (Tyler Ross), who was shot in the head during the massacre. Joan Allen guest stars this season as Colonel Margaret Rayne, the headmaster of the all-boys military academy where Kyle attends. The new season also stars Gregg Henry, Sterling Beaumon and Levi Meaden.”
Tyler Ross plays Kyle Stansbury, the black sheep of a wealthy, well-connected family, is the sole survivor of his family’s brutal massacre. He’s a gentle soul who’s been battered most of his life by the viciously competitive, dog-eat-dog world of Seattle’s best and brightest.
Levi Meaden plays AJ Fielding, a charismatic, over-achieving, attractive student, AJ attends the same Academy as Kyle, where he thrives and is regarded as a leader and success story by the students and administrators.
Sterling Beaumon plays Lincoln Knopf, a deeply troubled boy who wears his anger and instability on his sleeve. He has a specific hatred toward women — anger that seems as though it may erupt at any moment.
