No longer an Almost Human android, Ealy will take on a much more sinister role in the Fox crime drama.

While his character's name has yet to be revealed, TV Line reports that the Ealy's killer persona will be a "brilliant, chameleon-like murderer" who will go head to head with Ryan Hardy.

When The Following dropped by New York Comic-Con in October, the cast dropped a few hints about the third season. The premiere will pick up a year after the conclusion of "Forgive," according to Screen Rant, and Joe Carroll's story will continue despite his incarceration.

Now that Hardy's nemesis is locked away, the agent will shift his focus to Mike, according to Screen Rant. Slightly off the rails, Mike's behavior will concern Hardy even as he has stabilized his own life. With a new girlfriend and a good rapport with his niece, Ryan won't be the one viewers need to worry about this time around.
