UPDATE 5 -17 -18: David Strathairn will appear in next week's episode of The Expanse. Episode, Delta-V on Wednesday, May 23 at 9/8c. Don't miss it! Our original report, published Summer 2017, about Strathairn joining Season 3 is below for your viewing pleasure!

***********************

Space is the next frontier for Oscar-nominated actor, David Strathairn (Good Night, and Good Luck), who will be joining the third Season of The Expanse. Strathairn has appeared in countless films including The Bourne Ultimatum and The Bourne Legacy. He's also lent his talent to TV shows including The Blacklist, Z: The Beginning of Everything and Alphas, which aired here on Syfy. So basically, Strathairn is kind of a big deal and we're happy he's coming aboard for some space drama adventures.



For now, the particulars of the who, the where and the whaaaaa?!?! involving Strathairn's upcoming Expanse character are being kept on the hush but we may (we're not saying yet because surprises are neat!) make an annoucement later this week during San-Diego Comic Con so keep an eye out for more details.



Season 3 of The Expanse returns in 2018 but in the meanwhile, catch up on the adventures of Season 2 by watching full episodes.

H/T to Dateline for the coverage.
