In Legion, Aubrey Plaza will play Lenny Busker - a new character created for this show and someone who befriends David in the psychiatric hospital he lives in.

Plaza is an interesting choice to play a pivotal part in this series but an exciting one. Despite playing variations of a deadpan unsympathetic in most of her roles, she does it really well and was amazing as April Ludgate in Parks And Recreation.

Busker appears to be an interesting take on Plaza's typical style as despite appearing to be her usual self in the trailers, the character has been described as an optimist. Therefore, it seems likely that Lenny's dark sense of humour will provide a re-energising reprieve for both the audience and for David as he deals with the heavier elements of the plot.
