Alan Tudyk leads the cast of Resident Alien Season 3 as an alien intruder impersonating a local doctor from Patience, Colorado named Harry Vanderspeigle. 

After seeing the good in humans and developing empathy for them, Harry embraces his heroic side to defy the orders of his alien superiors to destroy Earth. 

Resident Alien Season 2's finale ends with Harry's big decision not to leave Earth, cementing him as one of the planet's strongest allies in the impending war between the Grey Aliens and the humans in Season 3.

In an interview with Screen Rant, Tudyk teased Harry's "tenuous partnership" with General McCallister in Season 3: 

"It's tenuous. It's a tenuous partnership. I think her expectations of who Harry is are probably different from what she finds. Her whole life she's been hunting for these vicious, awful, super-intelligent aliens, and then she finds Harry, who has a briefcase full of pizza. The arc this season for her—I don't think she just accepts that he's going to fix everything."

Tudyk has over 140 credits to his name, with roles in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Firefly, Doom Patrol, and A Knight's Tale.

Speaking with Screen Rant ahead of Season 3, Reynolds hinted that there is a potential romance brewing between Mike and Liv in the brand-new season, noting that fans will see a lot of "what [they've] come to enjoy:"

"You're going to see a lot of, hopefully, what you've come to enjoy. I think the audience discovered the emotional component of Mike and the aspects of insecurity that he carries that really influence how he engages with people. This whole overdoing everything to compensate for this hole that lives inside of him emotionally. One thing that's great is that Deputy Live is like Neo in 'The Matrix' with him. She just slows bullets and dodges because he can never get her."

Reynolds previously appeared in The Closer, The Terminal, and All American
