The live adaptation of Cowboy Bebop adds new names to its cast by welcoming Geoff Stults (Little Fires EverywhereThe Odd Couple),Tamara Tunie (Law & Order: Special Victims UnitAlmost Family), Mason Alexander Park (Acting for a CauseBucket and Skinner’s Epic Adventures), Rachel House (StatelessSherwood), Ann Truong (Strike BackSonnigsburg) and Hoa Xuande (Ronny Chieng : International StudentHungry Ghosts). They join John ChoMustafa ShakiDaniella PinedaAlex Hassell and Elena Satine.

Geoff Stults will play Chalmers, Jet Black’s (Mustafa Shakir) former partner in the homicide division of ISSP. He is on bad terms with Jet, a conflicted relationship that can be partly explained by the fact that Chalmers is dating Jet’s ex-wife. Tamara Tunie will play the role of Ana, the owner of Mars’ hottest underground jazz club. Although she plays the role of surrogate mother for Spike (John Cho), she is not a warm-hearted woman and is not a woman to be played around the edges.

Mason Alexander Park will be Gren, Ana’s right-hand man, while Rachel House will play Mao, a member of the “White Tigers” family and is far more deadly than her counterparts. Finally, Ann Truong and Hoa Xuande will play the twins Shin and Lin, henchmen of the criminal organisation led by Vicious (Alex Hassell).

The first episode of this famous adaptation of the eponymous Japanese anime and manga will be directed by Christopher Yost (Thor: Ragnarok, Max Steel). Shinichiro Watanabe, director of the original anime, will act as a consultant.
