ThePatrick Dempsey showhas also castThe Sopranosstar Michael Imperioli as Dutch, an Italian restaurant owner and chef who runs the criminal organization that employs Angelo. Dutch is also Angelo’s oldest friend.
As perVariety,Memory of a Killerhasnow cast Richard Harmon as a hitman named Joe, who works for Angelo and Dutch. Joe is responsible for reconnaissance and formulating getaway plans while working closely alongside Angelo. This allows him to see firsthand how early-onset Alzheimer’s is affecting Angelo, and Joe must decide what to do with this information.
What This Means For Memory Of A Killer
Memory of a Killerhas added another key character, who is poised to create some of the show’s most riveting conflict. A hitman trying to do his job while dealing with the symptoms of early-onset Alzheimer’s is an intriguing premise, and it becomes more complex with the addition of Joe’s character.
As possibly the only character who knows exactly what is happening to Angelo, Joe has a unique power over him, and has the ability to protect his associate or condemn him to death. Despite Angelo’s longtime friendship with Dutch, the truth would likely mean Angelo’s end, as a hitman with Alzheimer’s is too much of a liability.
As a member ofThe 100’s cast, Harmon’s John Murphy was a recurring role in seasons 1 and 2 before he became a series regular in seasons 1-7. Hewill be playing a more prominent role from the beginning inMemory of a Killer, and will likely be the most important character other than Angelo and Dutch.
