“Treme” will add at least two new characters to its storylines for season three.
Sam Robards (“Gossip Girl,” “The West Wing”) will portray a restaurant investor, and Chris Coy (“True Blood,” “Justified”) will play a character based in part on reporter A.C. Thompson, said series co-creator David Simon.
Thompson, of the nonprofit ProPublica news organization, teamed with “Frontline” and the Times-Picayune staff for an August 2010 episode of the PBS newsmagazine.

Simon said Thompson has been used as a consultant for season.
