RUNAWAYS Season 2 Adds Jan Luis Castellanos As Topher; First Official Image Released
The second season of Marvel's Runaways has added another member of the team in the form of Topher, who fans of the source material should be very familiar with. He'll be played by Jan Luis Castellanos...
During the Marvel's Runaways panel at NYCC yesterday, it was announced that a fan-favorite character would be joining the super-powered teens for the Hulu show's second season.
Newcomer Jan Luis Castellanos will play Topher, who is described as "a crafty runaway who schools our kids on new levels of street game. The consummate survivor, Topher knows how to read the room and win friends."
Possible SPOILERS ahead: In the comics, Topher actually reveals himself to be a villain who has infiltrated the team. Oh, and he also happens to be a vampire. Whether the show follows suit in that regard remains to be seen.
In Season 2, the Runaways have left their homes (and evil parents) behind and now have to learn to live on their own. As they scavenge for food, search for shelter, and take care of one another, our kids begin to realize, for better or worse, they're stuck with each other. And it's up to them to take down P.R.I.D.E. once and for all. But someone sent a mysterious message to Jonah... Is there a mole in the Runaways? Meanwhile P.R.I.D.E. is focused on finding their children, and Jonah has his own dangerous plan in mind.
Runaways returns for a 13-episode second season on December 21.
