Recently it was announced that 'Penny Dreadful' would be getting a number of new characters this season, and on Wednesday one of them made a debut on set for the Showtime drama.
Showtime is getting ready for the upcoming 2014-2015 TV season with new season premieres of such shows as 'Homeland' and 'Nurse Jackie' as well as the series premiere of new drama 'The Affair.'
The cast and crew of 'Penny Dreadful' recently sent warm wishes to Harry Treadaway (Victor Frankenstein) to the Showtime star, who celebrated his birthday on Wednesday, but by Thursday it was all business as filming officially began for season two.
'Penny Dreadful' made reference to Jack the Ripper during the show's pilot episode on Showtime, but recent news of the ripper draw him back into the series.
