What We Do In The Shadows Season 2 Cast
Okay, folks, let's dive headfirst into the wonderfully weird world of "What We Do In The Shadows" Season 2! Forget your troubles, grab a garlic knot (or don't, if you're feeling sensitive), and let's celebrate the hilarious humans and otherworldly creatures that make this show so darn addictive.
The Vampire Housemates: Still Chaotic, Still Hilarious
Nandor the Relentless (Kayvan Novak)
First up, we have Nandor the Relentless, played by the brilliant Kayvan Novak. Remember that one friend who's always trying to be the leader, but mostly just ends up making a fool of themselves? That's Nandor in a nutshell.
He's got the ancient warrior vibe going on, complete with epic tales of conquest...except his conquests mostly involve ordering too much glitter online and accidentally summoning demons via eBay.
Must Read
Laszlo Cravensworth (Matt Berry)
Next, the suavely seductive (and slightly unhinged) Laszlo Cravensworth, portrayed by the utterly fabulous Matt Berry. Think of him as that uncle who tells way-too-personal stories at Thanksgiving dinner, but with a better vocabulary and a penchant for turning into a bat.
Laszlo is all about passion, art (mostly topiary in…suggestive shapes), and, of course, his eternal love for Nadja. He is the heart of the vampire household.
Nadja (Natasia Demetriou)
Speaking of whom, let's give it up for the sharp-tongued and gloriously gothic Nadja, brought to life by the amazing Natasia Demetriou! She's the sarcastic queen we all aspire to be, rolling her eyes at everyone's nonsense while secretly plotting world domination (or at least, a really good séance).
Nadja is a powerful vampire with a killer sense of style (and a disturbing fondness for bringing back her ex-lover ghost). She's everything.
Colin Robinson (Mark Proksch)
And then there's Colin Robinson, the energy vampire, played to deadpan perfection by Mark Proksch. He's that coworker who corners you by the water cooler and drones on about the most boring topic imaginable, slowly sucking the life out of you.
Except, in Colin's case, it's actual vampirism! He's the unsung hero, proving that even the mundane can be hilariously terrifying.
Humans Caught in the Crossfire (and Loving It?)
Guillermo De la Cruz (Harvey Guillén)
We can't forget Guillermo De la Cruz, the long-suffering familiar, brilliantly played by Harvey Guillén. Guillermo is basically every assistant who's ever dreamed of a promotion, except his boss is a clueless vampire who keeps promising to turn him (and never does).
Poor Guillermo! He's the heart and soul, secretly protecting the vampires from themselves (and accidentally slaying a whole bunch along the way).
Notable Season 2 Guest Stars
Season 2 is overflowing with amazing guest stars! We're talking Haley Joel Osment as Topher, the familiar who is everything that Guillermo is not. He is perfect.
The episode featuring Mark Hamill as an ancient vampire seeking restitution for Laszlo burning down his home is pure television gold. And let's not forget the star-studded vampire council cameos!
These familiar faces add even more chaos and laughter to the already insane mix. Season 2 truly cements "What We Do In The Shadows" as one of the funniest shows on television.
So there you have it! A peek at the cast that makes "What We Do In The Shadows" Season 2 so spectacular. Go forth, binge-watch, and prepare to laugh until your sides ache! Because these vampires and their human companions are guaranteed to brighten your day (or night!).
