Cha-Cha and his partner Hazel are psychotic neo-nazis who seem to really enjoy their jobs as hired killers for the Temps Aeternalis. They are originally sent to kill The Boy after his time travel escapades.

These insane time-traveling assassins were first introduced in the second arc of Dallas, which reimagines the Kennedy Assassination. Cha-Cha and Hazel are truly sadistic individuals and believe in using the most violent methods possible to execute their targets.

In the comics, Cha-Cha is a man but the fine folks behind the Netflix series have gone in a different direction as far as the casting of the role is concerned. Mary J. Blige will play the ruthless hit woman who may have gripes about how her bosses run things, but in the end, the job is her life.

Hazel will be played by the recently Emmy-nominated Cameron Britton who played serial killer Ed Kemper in Netflix’s Mindhunter. He looks to continue his This time his run on the streaming service he'll be a psycho that isn't behind bars. And according to the official character description, Hazel will become at odds with Cha-Cha at some point after their blood-soaked adventures begin to wear on him.
