The Lord of the Rings alum Elijah Wood is set to star in the second season of the Showtime drama Yellowjackets.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the actor will be seen in a season-long guest role on the Emmy-nominated drama series.
Wood will play Walter, a dedicated citizen detective who will challenge present-day Misty (Christina Ricci) in ways she won't see coming.
Yellowjackets follows a group of teenagers involved in a plane crash in 1996. The series chronicles their attempts to survive while also tracking their current lives in 2021.
Wood becomes the third new face to join the show's present-day storyline and the first to not be playing an adult version of a pre-existing character.
