Deadline reported that Flynn’s character in “1923” is called Banner Creighton, a “hard-headed Scot” and a local leader of shepherds. Little additional information was provided, but we know he’ll be joining Harrison Ford, Helen Mirren and a slew of other huge names in the spin-off series.
On Sept. 16, Deadline reported that Robert Patrick of “Sons of Anarchy,” “Terminator 2” and “The Walking Dead” fame was joining the “1923” cast as Sheriff William McDowell, a friend of the Dutton family. All we know of the prequel’s plot far is that it takes place during the Great Depression, as pandemics and a historic drought sweep through Montana.
