MTV’s upcoming show Shannara just added three new faces!
According to THR, Brooke Williams, Marcus Vanco, and Daniel MacPherson are joining the adaptation of Terry Brooks‘ best-selling series, which explores a world set thousands of years after the destruction of civilization as we know it.
Brooke will play “Catania, a clever and wise Elf who serves as Amberle’s best friend and handmaiden,” which Marcus will play “Bandon, whose family is afraid of him for having mysterious visions.”
Daniel is set to portray “Arion, the heir to the Elvin throne. Overly serious, Arion is the polar opposite of wild brother Ander. He dedicates himself to proving to his father King Eventine he is worthy of the crown, but his plans are complicated when his niece Amberle goes missing.”
The show also stars Austin Butler, Ivana Baquero, Aaron Jakubenko, and Manu Bennett.
