The Umbrella Academy unmasks every member of The Sparrow Academy in Netflix’s season 3

THE Umbrella Academy has dropped its cast list for season 3 - unmasking the mysterious members of The Sparrow Academy.

Fans will remember how in the season 2 finale the Hargreaves family were horrified to travel forward in time, only to learn that they had been replaced by a new league of vigilantes.

The group were silhouetted, giving away very little - but now Netflix have revealed the identities of the new super-powered squad.

Production on the 10-episode series order begins next month in Toronto, despite the ongoing global coronavirus pandemic.

However, the streamer is yet to release any kind of release date, so we may not see season 3 arrive until 2022.

To tide yourself over until then, here's everything we know about The Umbrella Academy's new kids on the block.

8

Justin Cornwell will play Marcus, Sparrow #1.

A charming, chiseled, colossus. Honest, virtuous, and demanding, Marcus keeps the family together.

Graceful but lethal, calculated but compassionate, he is as smart as he is strong.

Marcus is disciplined, rational and in control.

He oozes confidence and leadership without ever having to raise his voice.

8

Justin H. Min will play Ben, Sparrow #2.

This is not the sweet Ben we know and love.

This Ben is a Machiavellian tactician, wrapped up in a pretty boy body with a rumbling inner-squid.

Vicious, pragmatic, and hyper-vigilant— Ben is determined to gain his status as the leader at all costs.

8

Britne Oldford will play Fei, Sparrow #3.

Fei sees the world in a special way. She comes across as a misanthrope who would rather be alone than spend even a second with you.

But truth be told, Fei wishes she had a friend.

Most of the time, Fei is the smartest person in the room and willing to work things out - but if you cross her there’s no looking back because Fei won’t stop until the job is done.

8

Jake Epstein will play Alphonso, Sparrow #4.

Years of crime fighting have left his face and body with countless visual reminders of his battles.

To compensate, Alphonso is armed with a caustic and biting sense of humor.

The only thing he likes better than verbally battering anyone foolish enough to get in his face, is a good pizza and a six-pack of beer.

8

Genesis Rodriquez will play Sloane, Sparrow #5.

A romantic and a dreamer who feels a higher cosmic calling leaving her eager to see the world and experience a life beyond her upbringing.

But obligations to her family keep Sloane tethered to the Academy, as does her fear of crossing the family line.

But Sloane has plans… and one day she might just be brave enough to act on them.

Smart and sharp as a knife, she spends most of her time hanging with Alphonso, her only friend.
