As Netflix’s take on Locke & Key continues to flesh out its cast, the adaptation has now added two more names to its ranks.

Courtesy of Deadline, Laysla de Oliveira has joined the show in a series regular capacity as the demonic Dodge, while Kevin Alves will take on a less frequent role as Javi, the bestest bud of Connor Jessup’s Tyler Locke. Oliveira is likely best known for her appearances in The Gifted, Alves for Degrassi: The Next Generation.

The pair join a cast the currently features Connor Jessup, Emilia Jones, Jackson Robert Scott, Sherri Saum and Darby Stanchfield.

The early blurb on Netflix’s Locke & Key reads:

Locke & Key is a horror/fantasy series that revolves around three siblings who, after the gruesome murder of their father, move to their ancestral home in Massachusetts only to find the house has magical keys that give them a vast array of powers and abilities. Little do they know, a devious demon also wants the keys, and will stop at nothing to attain them.

The Good Wife’s Meredith Averill and Bates Motel’s Carlton Cuse will serve as showrunner on the series.

If you remember, Hulu had previously taken Locke & Key to the pilot stage before then deciding against putting in a series order for the show. Said pilot was completely scrapped, with Netflix swooping in to pick up the rights and start from scratch.
