Michael Gladis (pictured below im “Mad Men”) is set as a series regular opposite Daniel Zovatto and Natalie Dormer in Showtime’s upcoming series “Penny Dreadful: City of Angels”, a follow-up to “Penny Dreadful” from the original series’ creator, writer and executive producer John Logan, Deadline reports.

Lorenza Izzo (pictured above in Aftershock) has also been tapped for the pivotal recurring role of Santa Muerte. Adam Rodriguez (“CSI: Miami”), Thomas Kretschmann (Avengers: Age of Ultron), Dominic Sherwood (Shadowhunters), and Ethan Peck (“Star Trek: Discovery”) also are set to recur.

A spiritual descendant of the story set in Victorian-era London, the next chapter will employ a new vision, new characters and storylines. It opens in 1938 Los Angeles; a time and place deeply infused with social and political tension. When a grisly murder shocks the city, Detective Tiago Vega (Zovatto) is embroiled in an epic story that reflects the rich history of Los Angeles: from the building of the city’s first freeways and its deep traditions of Mexican-American folklore, to the dangerous espionage actions of the Third Reich and the rise of radio evangelism. Before long, Tiago and his family are grappling with powerful forces that threaten to tear them apart.

In addition to Zovatto and Dormer, the series stars Kerry Bishé, Adriana Barraza, Rory Kinnear, Jessica Garza, Johnathan Nieves and Nathan Lane. Amy Madigan, Brent Spiner and Lin Shaye will also recur.

Gladis will play Councilman Charlton Townsend, the ambitious head of the L.A. City Council’s Transportation Committee; a man of killer instincts and ruthless political wiles.

Izzo will portray Santa Muerte, the Angel of Holy Death and sister of the charismatic demoness, Magda (Dormer).

Rodriguez will play Raul Vega, the eldest son of the Vega family and a righteous union leader and advocate for his people. Kretschmann will play Richard Goss, an aristocratic and mysterious German architect with grand plans for the future of Los Angeles: a manipulative master builder with unsettling connections to City Hall. Sherwood will play Kurt, the chauffer and bodyguard for Richard Goss (Kretschmann). There’s more to Kurt than meets the eye: an unexpected depth and surprising background. Peck will play Herman Ackermann, the charismatic second-in-command at the German-American Bund. His aggressive politics, heated rhetoric, and personal magnetism inevitably create tension within the group and for the Bund’s leader, Peter Craft (Kinnear).
