Dr. Theo Yedlin (Patric) will wake up as a new resident in Wayward Pines and finds himself caught in the middle of the rebellion. In season 2 we will also meet CJ Mitchum (Hounsou), a former teacher and historian with extensive knowledge of the town’s origin. A decision made by Mitchum will affect the lives of everyone in Wayward Pines.
Housnou and Patric will be joined by new cast members Tom Stevens (Cedar Cove), Nimrat Kaur, Josh Helman, and Kacey Rohl.
In the first season, ranked as last summer’s number 1 scripted series on broadcast television, we witnessed Ethan (Matt Dillon) wake in the hospital in the strange town of Wayward Pines. We watched as Dillon tried to escape the town, surrounded by huge walls and we learned that the people of the town may be the only humans left on Earth. Outside the walls blood thirsty creatures, decedents of what was once the human race, are waiting. When a group tries to escape the town part of the wall came down, letting the creatures inside.
From executive producer M. Night Shyamalan, the series is based on the international best-selling book series by Blake Crouch. Tune into Fox on Wednesday, May 25th, 2016 for the second season premiere.
