In the upcoming season of 'Mayor of Kingstown,' the fans will also witness some fresh faces such as Edie Falco, Lennie James, and Laura Benanti. Out of the newcomers, James' character Frank Moses seems to be the one most likely to shake things up for Renner's McLusky. During an interview with ScreenRant, James talked about his gangster character, Moses, and shared, "He's, again, as I was just saying about characters that really interest me, Frank Moses is most certainly one of those characters. He's a Detroit gangster who's come to Kingstown to fill the gap that's left by the departing Russians, basically, and he's going to be working with and against Mike to make his way into Kingstown. And to find out how successful he is or isn't in his relationships with both Bunny and Mike, you'll have to watch and see. "
