It looks like The Umbrella Academy universe is about to get a whole lot bigger in Season 3.
But first, let's discuss what we know about the Sparrow Academy from the show's finale.
At the end of Season 2, the beloved Umbrella Academy returned to the present day, only to find out that things weren't exactly as they had left them. This is where we first see the Sparrow Academy.
While we can't see their faces and we don't really know about their backstory yet, we're shown the outlines of five people and a floating cube.
We then see a fully alive version of Ben, who, upon seeing his siblings, asks his father, "Dad, who the hell are these assholes?" The episode ends shortly after, and we are left with SO many questions.
Meanwhile, looking at The Umbrella Academy comic books, the Sparrow Academy has appeared in several of the Hotel Oblivion series comics, where it's been implied that they, too, are some of the extraordinary children born on Oct. 1, 1989.
With a few newcomers on the way (not to mention a cube named Christopher), the introduction of the Sparrow Academy will undoubtedly mix things up for the Hargreeves siblings.
While we patiently wait for new episodes to hit Netflix, we've rounded up everything we know (so far) about the exciting casting news.
Fans got their first glimpse of the Sparrow Academy when casting news was confirmed by Netflix on Monday:

Writer and actor Cazzie David is confirmed to portray No. 6 (aka Jayme), a loner who doesn't have much to say because "she doesn't have to."
One of the newcomers whom fans can't seem to stop talking about? An Existential Dread Inducing Psykronium Cube that goes by "Christopher," the seventh member of the Sparrow Academy.
@UmbrellaAcad @netflix EXISTENTIAL DREAD INDUCING PSYKRONIUM CUBE (Newcomer) will play CHRISTOPHER, a telekinetic cube that can turn the room freezing cold and induce paralyzing fear without so much of a warning. The trustworthy, loyal oracle of the Sparrows is treated as just another sibling.
