Alongside the return of Taylor Dooley as the original Lavagirl, you'll likely recognize the faces of some of the other Heroics who've been nabbed, as well as those grownups who are put in charge of keeping their children safe from the unearthly intruders.
First, there's Pedro Pascal, who plays Marcus Moreno. Fans probably know him for any number of his hit roles. Some of his most memorable small screen parts include his turn as Nathan Landry in The Good Wife, along with his eye-popping performance as Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones. Fans may also remember him as Agent Juan Badillo in Graceland, as Agent Marcus Pike in The Mentalist, and as Javier Peña in Narcos. He is also known for his film roles as Whiskey in Kingsman: The Golden Circle and as Francisco "Catfish" Morales in Triple Frontier. His next silver screen role is set to be Max Lord in Wonder Woman 1984. Pascal also currently stars as the titular lead in the Star Wars series The Mandalorian.
Christian Slater also stars in the pic as the kidnapped superhero Tech-No. He's another star with a sprawling filmography.
