Filming of Under the Dome has been going on for a couple of weeks, but we have news of a late addition to the cast. Ned Bellamy will play the recurring role of Reverend Coggins in the upcoming series, according to a recent report.

While Bellamy was most recently seen in Justified and Django Unchained, he's had dozens of roles over the years, and has appeared in a number of horror titles, including The Possession, SawCarnosaur, and House IV.

Production is currently taking place in Wilmington, NC and the first episode will premiere on Monday, June 24th at 10:00 pm. The series stars Mike Vogel, Rachelle Lefevre, Dean Norris, Natalie Martinez, Britt Robertson, Alexander Koch, Colin Ford, Nicholas Strong, Jolene Purdy and Aisha Hinds.

For those that haven’t read the 1000+ page novel, Under the Dome was released in 2009 and involves a Maine town that has been cut off from the world by an invisible dome:

“Just down Route 119 in Chester’s Mill, Maine, all hell is about to break loose… On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day, a small town is suddenly and inexplicably sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and rain down flaming wreckage. A gardener’s hand is severed as the dome descends. Cars explode on impact. Families are separated, and panic mounts. No one can fathom what the barrier is, where it came from, and when — or if — it will go away. Now a few intrepid citizens, led by an Iraq vet turned short-order cook, face down a ruthless politician dead set on seizing the reins of power under the dome. But their main adversary is the dome itself. Because time isn’t just running short. It’s running out.”
