What We Do in the Shadows S04: Parisa Fakhri Cast in Recurring Role

Published Fri, 01 Jul 2022 11:47:14 -0500

With the fourth season of FX's What We Do in the Shadows bringing Laszlo (Matt Berry), (now Baby) Colin (Mark Proksch), Nadja (Natasia Demetriou), Guillermo (Harvey Guillén), and Nandor (Kayvan Novak) back to our screens on July 12, we have some more casting news to share about the show's expanding universe. Yesterday, we learned Anoop Desai (American Idol) will have a major recurring role this season, playing an acquaintance of Nandor's from his ancestral homeland. Now we're learning exclusively from Deadline Hollywood that SEAL Team star Parisa Fakhri (SEAL Team) will also be joining the cast for seven episodes, tapped to play Marwa, one of Nandor's 37 wives from his days as an ancient warrior in the kingdom of Al Quolanudar.

With the series returning on July 12, here's a look at the official trailer for FX's What We Do in the Shadows:

In the shocking season three finale of "What We Do in the Shadows," Nandor, Guillermo and Nadja left Staten Island to go their separate ways while Laszlo stayed home to care for the creature that clawed its way out of the chest cavity of the deceased Colin Robinson — aka Baby Colin. This season, the vampires return to Staten Island to find their mansion on the verge of total structural collapse — and with no money to repair it. While Nandor's eternal search for love finally yields results, Nadja finally realizes her dream of opening the hottest vampire nightclub in the Tri-State Area. Laszlo struggles with the question of nature versus nurture as he tries raising Baby Colin to be anything other than an energy vampire. And even Guillermo finds himself on a powerful emotional track that touches on his love for his family, and for others.

With such terrifying locations as the secret supernatural Night Market, the Jersey Pine Barrens and a wedding altar, and with more strange beasts, surprising guest stars and tap dancing than ever, season four of What We Do in the Shadows continues to make the case for blood and comedy. And this time with just a touch of home renovation.

Created by Jemaine Clement and produced by FX Productions, What We Do in the Shadows stars Kayvan Novak as Nandor, Natasia Demetriou as Nadja, Matt Berry as Laszlo, Mark Proksch as Colin Robinson, and Harvey Guillén as Guillermo. Clement, Waititi, and Paul Simms serve as executive producers for What We Do in the Shadows, alongside Scott Rudin, Garrett Basch, Eli Bush, and Stefani Robinson.
