The Twin Peaks actor's newest role was announced on Thursday, according to TV Line, which means it probably won't be too long before the baddie shows his face.

"The show is getting a little bit darker, it's a little edgier and you'll see that as we progress it will be crazy," Bennet said, according to The Star. "Skye finds out a lot about her family coming up, or lack thereof. She doesn't know where she's from or if she's human, or alien, if she has powers. She has no idea, so we'll be seeing a lot of her finding that out"
