Nothing yet.  The reveal happens Fri. June 20 USA (Thurs June 19 Canada).

His character was shown today Monday June 16 USA, with his back to the viewers, side of head visible, sitting in the shadows, watching the other characters via video surveillance.  But only the viewers saw this.  The other characters were unaware.  His name was not spoken.  At the end of the episode, a male voice said "It won't be long now" in an American accent. 

Update that Tues June 17 USA (just shown Mon June 16 Canada), he is continuing to watch the other characters via video surveillance.

The Aristotle Dumas château, maze, and private railroad.
In the dialogue, the characters say they are taking the train up the mountain to get there.
