Most of the original cast will be returning for Season 3, including Jason Bateman (Martin “Marty” Byrde), Laura Linney (Wendy Byrde), Julia Garner (Ruth “Ruthie” Langmore), Sofia Hublitz (Charlotte Byrde), and Skylar Gaertner (Jonah Byrde). Lisa Emery (Darlene Snell) has been bumped up to a series regular this season.

Netflix also announced that actress Madison Thompson has joined the cast this year as Erin, Helen’s (Janet McTeer) teenage daughter “who gets dragged along to the Ozarks for some mother daughter bonding that ends where neither expects,” Deadline reports. McTeer’s character will also be a series regular starting this season.

Former Marvel TV stars Tom Pelphrey and Jessica Frances Dukes will also join the cast during Season 3. According to another article by Deadline, Pelphrey will play Wendy’s mentally ill older brother, who arrives unannounced to stir things up in the Byrde household. Showrunner Chris Mundy revealed to the Hollywood Reporter that Wendy’s brother, “who we’ve hinted at the first couple years as having some mental illness in the past,” will be a very “destabilizing factor” in Wendy’s life.

Ruthie Attempts to Get Closer to the Byrdes & Marty & Wendy’s Marriage is Crumbling

The new season will see Ruthie attempting to get closer to the Byrdes, according to Mundy, although she might start to regret it later on. “Ruth is more and more self-confident, but she’s grateful to Marty for being the first person to believe in her and give her responsibilities,” Mundy said. “Going into season three, we see her very much wanting to be a member of the Byrde family. However, as she gets deeper and deeper into the enterprise, she starts to wonder if being a Byrde is the best thing to be.”

Meanwhile, Marty’s life and marriage continue to spiral further out of control, and, according to Mundy, Marty and Wendy will be “struggling with their power dynamic and ‘dealing with outside forces’” when Season 3 kicks off. Mundy also stated that Marty is “on a slippery slope, but he’s not all the way down yet,” so fans have a lot to look forward to this season.
