The Transparent cast is getting an exciting addition. Oscar winner, and Hollywood royalty, Anjelica Huston will guest star on the second season of the Emmy-winning  Amazon Studio’s original, reports Variety. The new comes straight from the mouth of creator Jill Soloway, who described Huston’s character as a “new friend” for Jeffrey Tambor’s Maura. “They have a lot of chemistry…palpable chemistry!” she said of the connection between the two actors. “It was palpable. I was directing them together and I was watching through the monitor.” The writer/director even hinted that Huston’s character, who will feature in three episodes, might be around longer than one season. Season two of Transparent will be available on Amazon on Dec. 4.
