Welliver might be best known to CBMers as The Man On Black, or "Smokey" from Lost but he is a veteran of quite a few great shows such as Sons Of Anarchy and Deadwood He will appear next in the FX tv series based on Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Avon Oeming's comic book series..
From AOLTV.com..
Welliver has been cast as Triphammer in 'Powers,' and if the pilot gets picked up to series, his role will be recurring.
Triphammer is described by the network as both "a genius and a narcissist," a combination of Steve Jobs and Donald Trump. He's not just a powerful force in his own right, he has invented technology that can both bestow and remove superhuman abilities.
Triphammer seems to be an Iron Man type character from what I can gather. I am a
Powers noob! Anyway the show also stars Jason Patric and Lucy Punch as detectives who investigate crimes involving people with superhuman abilities. The pilot was written by Charles H. Eglee(
The Shield) and it's being directed by
Justified executive producer Michael Dinner.
