Mr. Robot season 2: Craig Robinson joins cast

Production has officially started on the second season of Mr. Robot, and already there’s an exciting surprise to talk about.

The Office alum Craig Robinson has joined the cast of the USA as a recurring guest star. He’ll play Ray, “a neighboorhood local who reaches out to Elliot in his time of need.”

Robinson joins new cast members Joey Bada$$ and Chris Conroy, who were announced last week, along with promoted series regulars Stephanie Corneliussen and Michael Cristofer. Previously Grace Gummer (The Newsroom) was added to the cast an FBI agent investigating last season’s Evil Corp hack.
