And again the army of darkness. The series "Ash Against the Ominous Dead": actors, roles and storyline

In 2015, the premiere of the television series, which is the continuation of the series of films "The Evil Dead". The project of Tom Speziali, Sam and Ivan Reimi was successful, and at least three factors contributed to this. So, the series "Ash against the sinister dead": the actors, the roles they performed, and the plot.

Awakening of Evil

Thirty years have passed since the moment when Ash first encountered a Kandarian demon and his army of darkness. Now he lives in a small American town, sleeps in a trailer, and goes to work in the nearest supermarket. However, with the past he still did not tie up, since he still keeps the "Book of the Dead". As if she did not know what she was capable of.

Once in a bar he meets a girl, and then invites her to her. At the height of the party, they take out the Necronomicon and read out the lines that once again awaken the sealed evil.

The next morning, Ash begins to notice strange things. It seems to him that everyone around is obsessed with deadeys. Take at least his neighbor, who suddenly spoke in a demonic voice. Having figured out what was up, Ash was going to leave the city to meet with one book specialist. Only first he needs to get a calculation.

The chief asks to work the day, but Ash can not stay, so together with his colleagues - Pablo and Kelly, returns to the trailer to pick up the book. There they are attacked by a gardener and neighbor, possessed by the dedayts. Having dealt with the demons, the trinity understands what they had to face, so they take the book and leave the city. And in their wake are mysterious stranger Ruby and FBI agent Amanda Fisher, who blames Ash for the death of his partner.

In general, the story is in the spirit of the well-known trilogy. But the success of the series also depends on the well-chosen cast.

Ash Williams - Bruce Campbell

Bruce Campbell did an excellent job with Ashe Williams in the series "Ash Against Ominous Dead". As if there was not a long pause between the trilogy and the series. His hand is adorned with the same prosthesis in the form of a chainsaw, by which he also deftly repels the dead. Despite his age, Ash acts like a child, constantly getting into unpleasant situations. And his frivolity often jeopardizes both the people around him, so the whole world. It's good that he has enough experience to fight with what he revived.

The protagonist of the series "Ash against the sinister dead" (Bruce Campbell) in the movies and on television is not a beginner. And let the great popularity he achieved through the franchise "Evil Dead", Mr. Campbell can be found in other projects. Sam Reimi liked working with this actor so much that he decided to continue to cooperate with him. So, for example, Bruce appeared in a series of films about the "Spider-Man".

Ruby - Lucy Lawless

The appearance of a mysterious character named Ruby is one of the main riddles of the series. It is clear that she very much wants to meet with Ash, because in her pocket lies his sawn hand. It is not clear just what exactly she needs. Unlike the previous character, Ruby with all the responsibility comes to the point. However, at once you can not tell who she is and what forces she has. But she definitely has them.

Before the series "Ash against the sinister dead" Lucy Lawless took part in many other projects. Many remember her as the main character in the series about warrior Xena. Also it can be found in the mini-series "Spartacus", in the second season of the project "Salem" and in the sitcom "Two and a half people".

Amanda Fisher - Jill Marie Jones

Jill Marie Jones played an FBI agent. With the Army of Darkness she met the day after reading the lines from the Book of the Dead. When she went with the partner to the challenge, they attacked the girlfriend of Ash, possessed by the de-dites. As a result, the partner was killed, and Amanda vowed to take revenge on those who are involved in this. And if everything points to Ash, then she decided to start with him.

In addition to the series "Ash against the sinister dead," Jill Marie Jones can also be seen in other projects. Despite the fact that in her childhood she dreamed of playing the princess, it did not stop her from getting a role in the TV series "Girlfriends" and "Sleepy Hollow." And her first work was the series "City guys."

Pablo Bolivar - Ray Santiago

Being the best friend of Ash, as he himself thinks, Pablo was ready to support him in any matter. Perhaps that's why, when he told him about the book and about the evil she awakened, the guy not only believed him, but also volunteered to help. And even the loss of work did not frighten him at all.

Like many others who appeared in the series "Ash against the sinister dead" actors, Ray Santiago already has some career in the film industry. This actor starred in the movie "Meet the Fockers", and together with Michelle Rodriguez in the movie "Women's Fight." There are also roles in the television series My Name Is Earl and Law and Order.

Kelly Maxwell - Dana Delorenzo

Kelly is an employee of the same supermarket. Asha she does not know well, and got stuck with them by accident. The fact is that her father called and reported the return of her mother - Susie Maxwell (Mimi Rogers), who was considered dead. But she returned, and Ash guesses that it contributed. Therefore, he decides to go with Kelly, even if not on his own.

Almost all those who appeared in the series "Ash against the sinister dead" actors already had experience in television. And Dan Delorenzo - is also no exception. The actress can be found in the series "Prudish California", "Two ruined girls" and "Guide to family life."

It's not over yet

It's worth admitting that there are very few serials in the genre of "black comedy, horror", so the creators took a lot of risk by launching this project. But the pilot series showed excellent results, and the fact that the second season will be removed is no longer in doubt. And most importantly, in the continuation of the series "Ash Against the Ominous Dead" actors performing the main roles, will please fans again with their game.
