When taking a look at who will return to the Outer Banks cast and crew, we have one new bombshell addition: John B’s father!You know, the dead man we’ve been trying to uncover the secrets of and avenge? Yep. Not quite as dead as we thought after that Season 2 finale. Not sure where that leaves us on the avenging front if he isn’t actually dead.So Big John, as played by Charles Halford, will certainly play a large role in Outer Banks Season 3. To date, Halford is best known for his performance as Chas Chandler in Constantine, an NBC series.
Also returning will be the seasoned cast members from the first two installments, including:
Charles Esten as Ward Cameron Chase Stokes as John B. Routledge
Madelyn Cline as Sarah Cameron Madison Bailey as Kiara Carrera
Jonathan Daviss as Pope Heyward Rudy Pankow as JJ Maybank
Austin North as Topper Drew Starkey as Rafe Cameron
Carlacia Grant got promoted to series regular for her character Cleo. She’s become a tried and true member of the Pogues after she assisted in their escape in the Season 2 finale. We’re excited to see her become a part of the team.Chase Stokes talked about how he’s interested to see what her dynamic brings to the group now that she’s one of them. He also thinks it will be a positive change for the group to have someone that will keep them all in their place. Grant hopes we’ll discover more of Cleo’s backstory as the season progresses.

In addition to the returning cast, we have three new members joining Season 3. Andy MacQueen joins as Carlos Singh, a “Caribbean Don” described as smart, posh, and ruthless. What type of treasure is he looking for?Fiona Palomo joins as Sofia, someone who says she’s a Pogue, but really wants to be a country club girl. Where will her friendship with Rafe lead? Lou Ferrigno Jr. will play Ryan, a calm security officer who’s young and hungry under the surface.
Although we only know their names from IMDB, we can see that these characters have been added as well:Ted, played by Rick Perez Officer Henderson, played by Art Newkirk
Cruise Ship Patron, played by Angela Lentz Security Guard, played by Drew Broderick
Interestingly, WCBD News 2 reported that the producers were searching for an actor that could play young John B. The report said, “Casting agents say the show’s director is looking for a juvenile actor to portray a younger version of the show’s lead character, John B.”Are we getting some flashbacks to show how John handled the supposed loss of his father? What will we discover about John as a young boy? Accessing this part of his life will certainly reveal interesting elements of the story.Unfortunately, Alexander Jennings passed away due to injuries after being struck during a hit-and-run during the Season 3 filming. He was a body double for one of the actors.
