Interview: Tom Hopper And Robert Sheehan Talk Season 3 Of ‘The Umbrella Academy’, New Cast Members & More
The Umbrella Academy is back with the third season and it’s better than ever!
I had the chance to sit down with Tom Hopper and Robert Sheehan for a few minutes to discuss the new season of the series. During our conversation, Sheehan spoke about what it was like filming without sharing most of his scenes with Justin H Min this time around. Hopper spoke about his wife joining the cast and how she ties into the story.
The pair also spoke about getting to explore more of their character’s histories with Sir Reginald Hargreeves and what it means for the show. Lastly, Hopper shared what powers he would pick if he could switch with any other member.

The Umbrella Academy Official Synopsis
After putting a stop to 1963’s doomsday, the Umbrella Academy return home to the present, convinced they prevented the initial apocalypse and fixed this godforsaken timeline once and for all. But after a brief moment of celebration, they realize things aren’t exactly (okay, not at all) how they left them. Enter the Sparrow Academy. Smart, stylish, and about as warm as a sea of icebergs, the Sparrows immediately clash with the Umbrellas in a violent face-off that turns out to be the least of everyone’s concerns.
Navigating challenges, losses, and surprises of their own – and dealing with an unidentified destructive entity wreaking havoc in the Universe (something they may have caused) — now all they need to do is convince Dad’s new and possibly better family to help them put right what their arrival made wrong. Will they find a way back to their pre-apocalyptic lives? Or is this new world about to reveal more than just a hiccup in the timeline?
