Season 4 of ‘Ghosts’ with Dean Norris and Mary Holland
“Ghosts” adds two new cast members ahead of its fourth season.
During the show’s panel at San Diego Comic-Con, it was revealed that Dean Norris will guest star as Samantha’s father in season 4. In addition, Mary Holland will return as Patience, the Puritan spirit who made a shocking return to the Woodstone mansion to kidnap Isaac in the Season 3 finale.
Norris’s character is called Frank. He is described as “kind and well-meaning. Frank arrives in Woodstone for his first visit in years, along with his new girlfriend. Frank and Sam have struggled to stay close since Frank divorced Sam’s mother when Sam was ten. On the surface, Frank and Sam are cordial, but deep down, Sam resents her father for being largely absent from her life. After decades of insisting that ‘everything was fine,’ Sam is finally forced to confront these feelings when a new ghost in Woodstone forces her to have an uncomfortable conversation with her father.”
Patience is the ghost of a Puritan woman who died in the late 17th century. According to the character description: “While she was alive, she was extremely strict and judgmental, even by Puritan standards. As such, she was expelled from her village for “being a bit too much.” After being dead for a few hundred years, Patience was accidentally abandoned by the Revolutionary War ghost, Isaac, underground near the mansion and has become a wild creature that “wanders the mud” since 1895.
Norris is best known for his role as Hank Schroeder in the hit AMC drama series ‘Breaking Bad’. He appeared on the show throughout its five seasons and reprized the role of Hank in the prequel series ‘Better Call Saul’. Norris’s recent credits include ‘Law & Order: Organized Crime’, ‘Unfrosted’ and ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’.
He is represented by Innovative Artists and Constellation Media Group.
Holland previously appeared in comedy films such as ‘Nightbitch’, ‘Between Two Ferns: The Movie’ and ‘Senior Year’. On television, she has appeared in shows such as ‘The Big Door Prize’, ‘Star Trek: Lower Decks’, ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’, ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’, ‘New Girl’, ‘The Good Place’ and ‘The is always sunny in Philadelphia.”
She is represented by CAA, Atlas Artists and Ziffren Brittenham.
