So far, "Banshee" is doing great when it comes to reviews. From its first to fourth episode, the Cinemax action series has the critics raving about its fight scenes, stunts, and storyline.
For this season, "Banshee," which stars Antonny Starr and Ivana Milicevic, up the ante by introducing more big bad. Lucas Hood also gets caught up in the middle of the war between Kai Proctor (Ulrich Thomsen) and Chayton Littlestone (Reno Segers).
If you think you've seen enough in the show's first four episodes, you are wrong. According to Hoon Lee, who plays the fun and bad-ass transgender Job, prepare to get blown out as the season progresses. In an interview with Digital Trends, the "Banshee" actor was asked how would he rate the current season from 1 to 100. His answer is "120."
"If prior seasons pegged anywhere close to 100, we're at 120. This season was exhausting in ways prior seasons had not been. And a lot of that was due to the actual demands of the show," Lee said.
"One would think going into a third season there'd be a bit more ease, perhaps - that we as a group would take our foot off the gas a little bit, or we'd find a rhythm that would make our movements as a company more efficient. But the bar was raised so much higher than in prior seasons, and I'm glad for that."
Lee also warned audience that they will get blown away by "Banshee" season 3 when it comes to their offering in the remaining episodes.
"All I can say is I think people will be blown away by some of the stuff that happens in this season. In some ways, I think the yardstick we use to measure ourselves are the things like the heightened '80s action movies versus the movies of today. We don't get multimillion-dollar action budgets, but we try to get the same level of visceral excitement and involvement."
