LuPone will play Dr. Seward, an American therapist who treats Eva Green’s Vanessa Ives with “an unconventional new approach,” according to Variety.
A profoundly unsettling new saga, Penny Dreadful completely reinvents literature’s most iconic and terrifying characters. Dorian Gray, Victor Frankenstein and timeless figures from Dracula join a core of original characters in a dark and brutal quest to save a soul — even as they grapple with their own monstrous temptations.
The title refers to the penny dreadfuls, a type of 19th-century cheap British fiction publication with lurid and sensational subject matter.
The series stars Josh Hartnett, Timothy Dalton and Eva Green.
