The fourth season of Doom Patrol has added Elijah Rashad to its cast. The news was announced by Deadline, with the outlet reporting Reshad will play a recurring character named Deric. He’s said to be a “brilliant, community-minded robotics teacher” who soon finds his way pulled back into the life of his former best friend, Vic Stone.
Rashad joins fellow series newcomer Sendhil Ramamurthy, who joined the series as the obscure DC Comics villain, Mr. 104. Also joining the series is Madeline Zima, who is set to play Casey Brinke, aka Space Case. Prior to joining the cast of Doom Patrol, Rashad aired in shows such as This is Us, Snowfall and Grown-ish.
Doom Patrol stars Brendan Fraser as Cliff Steele, Matt Bomer as Negative Man aka Larry Trainor, April Bowlby as Elasti-Woman aka Rita Farr, Diane Guerrero as Crazy Jane and Joivan Wade as Victor Stone aka Cyborg. The first three seasons of Doom Patrol are now streaming exclusively on HBO Max. Season 4 of Doom Patrol is set to return in December with two new episodes, before moving to a weekly format in January.
