There’s been another addition to the cast of Eli Roth’s horror project for Netflix, Hemlock Grove, and we’ve got the latest for you right here! That’s how we roll. (Prior sentence used as a means to connect with kids today.)

Deadline reports that Australian actress Penelope Mitchell has been cast in a regular role in Netflix’s new original series Hemlock Grove from Eli Roth and Gaumont International TV, joining the previously announced Famke Janssen, Bill Skarsgard and Landon Liboiron.

Written by Brian McGreevey and Lee Shipman based on McGreevy’s upcoming goth horror novel, Hemlock Grove revolves around the murder of a young girl found close to the former Godfrey steel mill. The suspects in her killing include Peter (Liboiron), a 17-year-old Gypsy kid from the wrong side of the tracks, and Roman (Skarsgard), the arrogant Godfrey scion, whose sister, Shelley, is disturbingly deformed and whose mother, Olivia (Janssen), is the beautiful and controlling grand dame of Hemlock Grove. In the end Peter and Roman decide to find the killer themselves.

More as it comes.
