The second season of Fox’s M. Night Shyamalan-produced series “Wayward Pines” is being infused with a whole lot of star power, as we recently learned that both Jason Patric and Djimon Hounsou will be heading to the mysterious town. Who will be joining them? We’re serving up the latest today!
Deadline reports that actresses Kacey Rohl (“Hannibal”) and Nimrat Kaur (“Homeland”) have been added to the psychological thriller’s Season 2 cast. “Hannibal” fans will remember Rohl as Abigail Hobbs, a character that played a prominent role in the main story throughout the entire series.
Based on the world created by author Blake Crouch in his bestselling series of books, the 10-episode second season of “Wayward Pines” will pick up where Season 1 left off, with the town’s residents battling the iron-fisted rule of the First Generation. Dr. Theo Yedlin (Patric) — a new resident of Wayward Pines – awakens from suspended animation and finds himself in the middle of this rebellion, as he tries to understand what Wayward Pines really is and help preserve the endangered human race.
Rohl will play Kerry Campbell, described as a tough and unflappable part of the new Wayward Pines brain trust. Kaur will play Rebecca, Theo’s wife, a successful architect.
“Wayward Pines,” from 20th Century Fox TV, is executive produced by Donald De Line, Ashwin Rajan, Crouch, and Shyamalan. Mark Friedman serves as executive producer and new showrunner.
