Apart from Ives, Lily and Dorian too are speculated to create a sting in the third season of "Penny Dreadful." Director John Logan even hinted that both characters will also exemplify a great deal of interest for the viewers.
"Well, yes and no. Certainly, as characters - like you said as this new power couple - they're quite formidable," said Creator/ Writer John Logan from IGN. "And they definitely sort of rose up in Episode 10 of this season. And our characters come into conflict with many shapes and shadows and have a lot of challenges ahead of them. And so Lily and Dorian will be a big part of next season. And they're terrifying. Because whereas The Creature wants to be a part of humanity, to be one with humanity, and to be accepted by other people, Lily and Dorian want to rule over humanity. And it's a chilling, scary thought."
"Penny Dreadful" season 3 premieres Sunday, May 1, 2016 on Showtime.
