Ray Donovan will be returning Sunday, August 6 at 9pm EST. Hollywood actor Liev Schreiber stars in the series as a professional fixer who helps celebrities and star athletes by making their biggest problems and situations go away. Actor Jon Voight plays Mickey Donovan, Ray’s ex-con father.
Just recently, Liev Schreiber reveled that fans are in for a huge shock this season. He makes it no secret that things are going to get pretty dark and difficult for Ray.
According to Collider, Liev said, ““I’m in the middle of Season 5 right now, and it’s a shocker. It really is a shocker. I’m afraid that I can’t tell you more than that because there are such critical plot things happening this season […] but it’s a very dark year for Ray.”
What’s more, previous reports indicate that Hollywood actress Susan Sarandon will also be joining the show in a recurring guest role.
