7	[[folder:Sam Lawton]]
8	!!Sam Lawton
9	!!!'''Played By:''' Creator/NicholasDAgosto
10	* BlessedWithSuck: Like all of the visionaries in the series.
11	* TheFatalist: While he doesn't ''want'' to fall victim to Death, he does note how unlikely his odds of defeating it will be, and carries out his daily routine rather than try to run or hide, being aware of how nowhere is really safe.
12	* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: How he dies in the premonition. A piece of metal slices his body in half.
13	* TheHero: The protagonist of the film, and he manages to save some of his coworkers from the bridge collapsing. He also attempts to protect the people who survived, and [[spoiler:kills Peter when he tries to kill Molly]].
14	* KillItWithFire: [[spoiler:Is immolated on the same plane that was destroyed in the first film's opening.]]
15	* NiceGuy: He's supportive of his friends and coworkers and works to save people from Death.
16	* SupremeChef: Aspires to be this.
17	[[/folder]]
18
19	[[folder:Molly Harper]]
20	!!Molly Harper
21	!!!'''Played By:''' Creator/EmmaBell
22	* BreakTheCutie: She gets very badly shaken and traumatised by the deaths of (nearly) all of Sam's friends, having witnessed them or got told.
23	* EveryoneLovesBlondes: She's a nice, blonde woman who Sam is crushed to lose his relationship with.
24	* [[HalfTheManHeUsedToBe Half the Woman She Used to Be]]: [[spoiler:Gets sucked out the window of the original film's plane and collides with the wing, which rips her in half.]]
25	* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Has blonde hair and is the nicest of the cast.
26	* LoveMartyr: Ultimately. She broke up with Sam, not because she didn't love him, but because she thought she was holding him back from his dream of going to Paris.
27	* TeamMom: although there's not as much of a team as there is in the other movies.
28	[[/folder]]
29
30	[[folder:Nathan Seers]]
31	!!Nathan Seers
32	!!!'''Played By:''' Creator/ArlenEscarpeta
33	* BornUnlucky: He came close to missing the bus in the first place - something which would have saved his life - gets mistreated by some of his subordinates at the plant, and [[spoiler:the guy he ends up accidentally killing had an aneurysm, keeping Nathan from surviving due to getting his years]].
34	* DueToTheDead: Zigzagged, he jokes a little at the initial memorial, but seems more somber after Candice dies [[spoiler:and attends Roy's wake]].
35	* SquashedFlat: [[spoiler:Crushed by falling debris from the first movie's exploding plane.]]
36	* TokenBlackFriend: The [[TokenMinority sole black member of the main cast]] and a close friend of Sam and Peter.
37	[[/folder]]
38
39	[[folder:Peter Friedkin]]
40	!!Peter Friedkin:
41	!!!'''Played By:''' Miles Fisher
42	* AlasPoorVillain: [[spoiler:At the end of the day, Peter was just a random guy who saw his girlfriend die and didn't want to join her. What he did was brutal and wrong, but his original sin was just wanting to live]].
43	* AxCrazy: [[spoiler:At the climax.]]
44	* CompositeCharacter: If the series couldn't get any ''[[Film/TheOmen Omen]]''-esque enough, Peter at the climax eventually fulfills the role of that of [[spoiler:the Anti-Christ's protectors ([[Film/TheOmen1976 Mrs. Baylock]], [[Film/DamienOmenII Ann Thorn]], etc.) who are the BigBad's disciples who acts as the direct human antagonists.]]
45	** [[spoiler:Interestingly enough, both Peter and Mrs. Baylock both die in a kitchen when attempting to kill the protagonist, who kills him/her with cooking utensils (Mrs. Baylock by carving fork and Peter by skewer).]]
46	** Additionally, the way he dies in the premonition by having a bunch of poles coming down on him not only nods to Father Brennan's death (who only had one pole speared him) in the first ''Omen'' film, but also [[spoiler:ironically how Ann Thorn kills the second ''Omen'' film's protagonist Richard by stabbing him with three of the Daggers of Megiddo all at once.]]
47	* DeadpanSnarker: Already had a bit of a downplayed {{Jerkass}} air to him before he goes crazy.
48	* DirtyCoward: [[spoiler:At the climax, he tries to kill Sam and Molly to save his own skin.]]
49	* TheDragon: [[spoiler:Becomes this for Death. Death, however, has a sense of honor and seems against Peter killing people ''not'' on the list, so Peter dies anyway.]]
50	* EvenEvilHasStandards: Peter tells to his friends how he had the opportunity to kill random persons on the street, without any repercussion, stealing their remaining lifetime, but he refrained from doing so, because he couldn't see a reason for them deserving to die. His friends are much relieved. For a very short time, though, as then he starts getting more threatening.
51	* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler:Betrays his remaining friends and tries to kill them to appease Death. Death, who has a sense of honor - even if it ''is'' a twisted and maniacal one - decides he won't have that and Peter goes out too!]]
52	* TheHeavy: [[spoiler:He is the only direct physical antagonist in the series, as Death never had a physical form and attacks protagonists in staged freak accidents unlike Peter who just outright tries to kill his remaining friends by his own direct hand.]]
53	* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: [[spoiler:Gets impaled with a large skewer by Sam to stop him killing Molly.]]
54	** This is also how he dies in the premonition. A bunch of poles would have come down on him, with one of the poles stabbing him in the head.
55	* InTheBack: [[spoiler:Where Sam impales him.]]
56	* JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: After [[spoiler:Candice's death]].
57	* LeaveNoWitnesses: [[spoiler:Tries to kill Molly after he shoots and kills Agent Block. But Sam stops him before he can.]]
58	* PetTheDog: He did try to warn Dennis about Death and his list, and seems reluctant at the idea of [[spoiler:killing Sam]].
59	* RewardedAsATraitorDeserves: [[spoiler:Ultimately dies earlier than expected because he killed someone not on Death's list and was betraying everyone else, against Death's code of honor.]]
60	* SanitySlippage: After [[spoiler:Candice's death]].
61	* TookALevelInJerkass: [[spoiler:Near the end of the movie.]]
62	* TragicVillain: [[spoiler:Peter definitely lost his mind at the end, but the only reason why he’s so crazy is that he wants to live, even saying that he doesn't want to kill anyone, but he doesn't want to die either]].
63	* WalkingSpoiler: There's a reason most of his character tropes are censored.
64	[[/folder]]
65
66	[[folder:Agent Jim Block]]
67	!!Agent Jim Block
68	!!!'''Played By:''' Creator/CourtneyBVance
69	* AgentScully: Towards the whole "Death-is-following-us" thing. Subverted as the film goes on.
70	* BadassLongcoat: A tough, investigative man who wears a longboat.
71	* ByTheBookCop: He conducts his investigation carefully, and without overstepping his bounds.
72	* InTheBack: [[spoiler:Shot by Peter, who claims his life force to avoid Death; Block was the person investigating the bridge collapse, meaning he wasn't involved with the collapse himself and was therefore never in danger of dying.]]
73	* KilledMidSentence: He tries to call for backup while heading into Le Cafe Miro 81 to investigate a shooting in there, [[spoiler:only for Peter to shoot him InTheBack while he's talking.]]
74	* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He looks for any signs of suspicious activity, but is also willing to recognize the signs that Sam is innocent and still try to protect him and the others.
75	[[/folder]]
76
77	[[folder:Olivia Castle]]
78	!!Olivia Castle
79	!!!'''Played By:''' Jacqueline [=MacInnes=] Wood
80	* BeneathTheMask: Olivia acts flippant and unaffected by all of the deaths in the movie, but while talking to her optometrist, she implies that it's affected her a lot more deeply than that and has made her reassess her life.
81	* DisneyVillainDeath: [[spoiler:After the botched LASIK surgery, she stumbles out a window and falls onto a car.]]
82	* EyeScream: [[spoiler:Due to a malfunctioning LASIK machine.]]
83	* HopeSpot: [[spoiler:After getting out of the laser machine, she is frazzled, distressed and blinded in one eye, but she is able to be seen by the others entering the room and she begs for help. Before anyone can do so, she trips over, crashes through a window and falls to her death]].
84	* {{Jerkass}}
85	* NaughtyByNight: implied by how she shows up for work in a musicians van, wearing a revealing outfit before changing into something more conservative. The shooting script describes her as having some loose glitter from a nightclub in her hair.
86	* NervousWreck: She gets quite rattled before her eyes surgery.
87	* MsFanservice: Considered one of the hottest characters of the series.
88	* PetTheDog: Olivia puts her glasses into a donation bin while going to get LASIK surgery. She also doesn't treat Sam poorly after his vision of doom.
89	* RedHerring: [[spoiler:At first, the audience expects Olivia to die from the haywire LASIK machine. Instead, they get thrown a curveball when she dies as a result of stepping her heel on a teddy bear's eye, which popped out earlier in the scene. She loses her balance and falls through the window and onto a car below]].
90	* TheRival: To Candice Hooper.
91	[[/folder]]
92
93	[[folder:Dennis Lapman]]
94	!!Dennis Lapman
95	!!!'''Played By:''' Creator/DavidKoechner
96	* CruelAndUnusualDeath: This is how Dennis dies in Sam's premonition, as he grabs hold of the bridge to save himself, only to have a load of hot tar from the roadworks fall on top of him, horrifically burning him and giving him a slow, agonising death as his skin melts away. [[spoiler: His ''real'' death where he's impaled in the face by a flying wrench is almost merciful, as it's very quick and he probably didn't even see it coming.]]
97	* HiddenDepths: As the bodies start piling up, there's one scene where the others look into his office and see him with his head in his hands, apparently crying or otherwise emotionally affected.
98	* MeanBoss: You wouldn't really want to be under his wing...unless you liked being scolded.
99	* ObnoxiousInLaws: references having some.
100	* WrenchWhack: [[spoiler:How he dies]].
101	* WrongGenreSavvy: in his interactions with Block, who asked him to keep an eye on Sam, asking if they should have codenames or something.
102	[[/folder]]
103
104	[[folder:Roy Carson]]
105	!!Roy Carson
106	!!!'''Played By:''' Brent Stait
107	* AssholeVictim: Spends most of his screentime berating Nathan, since he's sick of having a supervisor younger than him.
108	* GreenEyedMonster: Jealous of Nathan for becoming a supervisor, since he has worked at the company longer than Nathan and feels like he deserves it more.
109	* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: [[spoiler:DoubleSubverted. He is pushed off a collapsing catwalk and manages to catch a lifting hook before landing on a metal spike... except he caught the hook with his head.]]
110	* {{Jerkass}}: To Nathan especially.
111	[[/folder]]
112
113	[[folder:Isaac Palmer]]
114	!!Isaac Palmer
115	!!!'''Played By:''' Creator/PJByrne
116	* AssholeVictim: Goes around stealing things from his deceased co-workers's desks. If he hadn't been such a {{Jerkass}}, he wouldn't have found the gift card to the massage parlor he'd die at. Makes a couple insults to the acupuncturist prior to her leaving the room, plus she doesn't like him bringing his phone in. She's the last person he ever sees, literally, and the place she puts his phone plays a part when it rings a second time.
117	* DeathByRacism: Makes a racist joke towards his acupuncturist and a Buddha statue, saying she can't understand him because she's Chinese, and then makes a "2 million people can't be Wong" snark. Death, who has a sense of honour and integrity, albeit a warped and twisted one, decides to take revenge and Isaac dies via the Chinese Buddha figure falling on his head.
118	* FourEyesZeroSoul: Wears glasses except for his death scene, and isn't a particularly decent guy.
119	* HumanPincushion: Was undergoing acupuncture treatment at the time of his death, and when his bed collapses, it drives the needles too far into his body; this helps with his eventual death.
120	* KillItWithFire: Subverted. Despite noticing a stand catching on fire and him knocking candles onto ointment that spreads the fire, he dies under the falling Buddha statue, and never suffers anything from the flames, which died down on both the stand and the ointment.
121	* MeaningfulName: His name is Isaac, and something falls on his head. [[UsefulNotes/IsaacNewton Sound familiar?]]
122	* YourHeadAsplode: Crushed under a Buddha ornament.
123	[[/folder]]
124
125	[[folder:Candice Hooper]]
126	!!Candice Hooper
127	!!!'''Played By:''' Creator/EllenWroe
128	* BloodFromTheMouth: After she lands like a twisted pretzel and breaks a good chunk of her body, some blood starts seeping from her mouth.
129	* {{Hypocrite}}: Slutshames Olivia while she's the intern sleeping with her boss.
130	* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: How she dies in the premonition. She falls off the bridge and lands on a boat mast.
131	* JerkassToOne: Her relationship with Olivia is mutually nasty, but she's on good terms with everyone else.
132	* JerkJock: A [[GenderInvertedTrope rare female example]]. She's a gymnast, and the opening scene has her calling Olivia (''the film's MsFanservice'') fat and saying that she should go to the gym more often before calling her [[ReallyGetsAround a slut]] on top of it.
133	* RedHerring: All the scene leading up to her death reveals some options to how Candice will bite it, including a water puddle on an exposed wire, a fallen fan screw on a beam, and some loose wire supports on a horizontal bar. However, none of these things actually kill her, though the screw ends up playing a vital role when someone else steps on it, knocking a bowl of powder which blinds Candice, who is quickly killed by falling down and breaking her back on the uneven parallel bars.
134	* SickeningCrunch: When she finally dies by breaking her back, you hear it.
