‘Ash Vs Evil Dead’ Season 2 Release Date, Cast & News: ‘Devious Maids’ Actress Cast As Ash Gf, Series May Erase ‘Army Of Darkness’ as Canon

"Devious Maids" actress Michelle Hurd is the latest addition to the growing "Ash Vs Evil Dead" Season 2 roster. After recurring in "Devious Maids" as the unhappily married Jacklyn Dussault, Michelle Hurd joins "Ash Vs Evil Dead" Season 2 as Ash Williams' high school love.

Michelle Hurd's married character in "Devious Maids" went through immense heartbreaks. Will her role as a blast from the past for Ash Williams in "Ash Vs Evil Dead" Season 2 bring her better luck? Deadline Hollywood reports that alongside her history in "Devious Maids," Michelle Hurd plays the striking Renee Grover in "Hawaii Five-O."

Also surfacing from Ash Williams' past in "Ash Vs Evil Dead" Season 2 is "Six Million Dollar Man" Lee Majors in a parental role. Lee Majors will play the role of Brock Williams, Ash Williams' estranged father.

Ted Raimi is yet another awaited addition in "Ash Vs Evil Dead" Season 2. Brother of "Evil Dead" universe creator Sam Raimi, Ted Raimi will recur in "Ash Vs Evil Dead" Season 2 as Ash Williams' best friend Chet Kaminski.

Aside from the strong casting that is coming together in "Ash Vs Evil Dead" Season 2, Den Of Geek points out one change that is building up in the wake of "Ash Vs Evil Dead" Season 2. Fans who followed Ash Williams in the "Evil Dead" installment, "Army Of Darkness," may have experienced a slight sense of disorientation when Starz rolled in with the "Ash Vs Evil Dead" TV series. This mainly comes from the discontinuities between "Army Of Darkness" and "Ash Vs Evil Dead."

While the issue for "Army Of Darkness" is mainly licensing more than anything else, the ripple of omissions from "Ash Vs Evil Dead" of all references to events in "Army Of Darkness" is more potent than first realized. "Ash Vs Evil Dead" essentially eases "Army Of Darkness" out as a canon of the "Evil Dead" franchise.
