We might still me missing Catelyn and Robb Stark on HBO’s Game of Thrones, but we’ll get to see more Michelle Fairley when she joins the cast of ABC’s Resurrection for a season-long story arc this September.
Fairley will recur as Margaret Langston, the formidable matriarch of the Langston clan. Mother of Henry and Fred (Kurtwood Smith, Matt Craven), and dead for over three decades, she will reappear in Arcadia as one of the returned. Margaret brings with her knowledge of the Langston family’s dark past, a past she is determined to keep hidden. Her return will have consequences for the entire family.
In addition to “Game of Thrones,” Fairley played international industrialist Ava Hessington on the USA series “Suits” and most recently starred in 2014 on a season-long arc as Margot Al-Harazi on “24 Live Another Day.”
“Resurrection” stars Omar Epps (“House”) as J. Martin Bellamy, Frances Fisher (“Titanic”) as Lucille Langston, Matt Craven (“Crimson Tide,” “A Few Good Men”) as Fred Langston, Devin Kelley (“Chernobyl Diaries,” “The Chicago Code”) as Maggie Langston, Mark Hildreth (“The Tudors”) as Pastor Tom Hale, Samaire Armstrong (“Entourage,” “The O.C.”) as Elaine Richards, Landon Gimenez as Jacob and Kurtwood Smith (“That ’70s Show”) as Henry Langston.
The new season of Resurrection begins September 28th at 9 p.m.
