ABC’s ‘Revenge’ season 4 spoilers: Meet Louise’s politician brother!

Given how many times we have heard on “Revenge” already about Louise’s politically-minded brother, it only made sense that we would be meeting him eventually.

Now, we finally have some further details to report. According to a new report coming in from Deadline, Sebastian Pigott (“Pacific Rim”) has been brought in for multiple episodes in the role of Lyman Ellis, who should be another person to mix up life in the Hamptons. One glorious thing to remember right now is this: If Louise is crazy, then the rest of her family may have a little bit of that in them, as well. She has made the destruction of Victoria Grayson her goal by any means necessary, and for a good while, seducing Daniel was her way to make that happen. We can only imagine what would happen if she and Emily Throne ever teamed up; it’s closer to happening now, if only because she has spent some time recently with Nolan after he took on a new “business venture” that was really just an opportunity for him to hide out.

Honestly, it’s up to the showrunners now when it comes to how long the Louise character lasts, given that she has already made it a heck of a lot longer than we first assumed that she would on the show. Given that most guest characters tend to meet a pretty grim fate, we are not feeling altogether great right now about her prospects.

“Revenge” has a few more episodes to air on Sundays before the winter finale, and then the series is going to shift its way back to the schedule come late January.
