Amazon Prime Video’s animated series Invincible Season 3 introduces significant developments, particularly in its casting of esteemed actors Jonathan Banks and Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Banks, best known for his role as Mike Ehrmantraut in Breaking Bad, and Morgan, who famously portrayed Negan in The Walking Dead, lend their voices to pivotal characters in the new season. Banks takes on the role of Brit, while Morgan voices the formidable Viltrumite antagonist, Conquest.
Morgan brings a nuanced intensity to Conquest, a character feared in the Invincible comics for his ruthless demeanor and formidable strength. His arrival in the penultimate episode, titled What Have I Done?, sets the stage for an epic showdown with protagonist Mark Grayson (voiced by Steven Yeun). This casting not only reunites Morgan and Yeun—rekindling their on-screen rivalry from The Walking Dead—but also introduces a villain whose presence will profoundly challenge Mark.
A new ally has emerged with the introduction of Brit
Fans initially speculated that Jonathan Banks would voice Conquest. But the series took a different turn, casting him instead as Brit—a character with a compelling history in the Invincible comics
Brit, a super-soldier reminiscent of Captain America, possesses invulnerability, making him immune to physical harm. His origins trace back to World War I, where he received a serum granting him unparalleled durability. Over the years, this power has solidified his role as a steadfast protector.
