The InSneider was first to confirm Hamill's involvement, with Deadline subsequently backing up the report. Details about the character that Hamill plays follow the spoiler warning further below.

Hamill is just the latest big name to join Twisted Metal, as Anthony Carrigan came aboard for Season 2 as Calypso. Tiana Okoye, meanwhile, joined the show for its second season as Dollface. The show's two main characters are John Doe (Anthony Mackie) and Quiet (Stephanie Beatriz).

Twisted Metal has been a big success for Peacock, becoming the platform's second highest-reaching original returning scripted show.

Twisted Metal, which is based on the PlayStation game, hails from executive producers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick of Deadpool fame. Michael Jonathan Smith (Cobra Kai) was the showrunner for Seasons 1 and 2, but he dropped out for Season 3, replaced by David Reed (The Boys, Supernatural).

A release date for Twisted Metal Season 3 has not been announced.

The Twisted Metal show is produced in part by PlayStation Productions, the unit of PlayStation that helps lead the development on adaptations of PlayStation's games for film and TV. Future projects from PlayStation Productions include the Helldivers, Horizon, Days Gone, Bloodborne, and Ghost of Tsushima movies, along with The Last of Us and God of War TV shows.
