Hey, Mr. Robot fans! Guess what? Mr. Robot season three is set to premiere on the USA network in October… OCTOBER! Look, I love this show, and I’m pumped up for what season three of the crazy hacker thriller is going to bring us.
The news comes from Variety, who also reports that Bobby Cannavale (Ant-Man, Vinyl) is joining the series as a character named Irving, described as “a laconic, no-nonsense used car salesman.” BD Wong has also jumped on board as a series regular.

Jeff Wachtel, NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment’s chief content officer added:
“Season 3 of ‘Mr. Robot’ will engage viewers in a whole new way, with Sam and team continuing to find ways to surprise, challenge and delight the audience. And adding Bobby Cannavale and BD Wong to our cast makes one of the tightest acting ensembles even stronger.”
