Hailing from Longmire and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Bailey Chase will join the NBC monster drama as Lucien Petrovich, according to Deadline.
Petrovich is billed as the head of a "Wesen revolutionary group," although it is unknown if he is associated with the sect the cast as dubbed the Black Claw. Considering the timing of the announcement, Chase's character may not appear until after the series' 100th episode trip to Germany.

Nick's (David Giuntoli) knowledge of the Wesen uprising is still in its infancy, as is his understanding of Chavez's (Elizabeth Rodriguez) clandestine organization. As the season progresses, however, the cop will start to see ties to the Black Claw everywhere he looks.
"Black Claw are now being tied into pretty much every procedural episode we have," Bree Turner (Rosalee) teased, according to IGN. "There's a real connective tissue in this season that we haven't had before. Even when we go away from the overarching plot into the more procedural fare there are connecting strings to this violent uprising that's happening."
