Russell Tovey is an Industry-ous Chap


It was already a monkey's paw kind of situation going into Industry's fifth and final season, knowing that the show (which has absolutely been on fire with awesomeness for years now) would probably be able to get any actor they wanted to for this next, last round of episodes, all while we know that the show's ending and how much that sucks. But it's double-fold monkey-paw shit today when I have to tell you that we have gotten the wonderful word that Russell Tovey's joining the show... but so is Ben Platt. WHY??? Why can't we just have the good part and amputate that second half??? Ugh. Ugh. Ugh! Anyway the info on who they're each playing is there at the link if you wanna spoil yourself -- I know that gay actiors don't have to play gay characters (no matter what I might have said in the past; I was drunk) but I do find it interesting that two 'mos just joined the show in unison. Let's hope it points us in the direction of where Sir Henry Muck's storyline is headed!
