Fans of WGN’s hit new series Underground like myself are anxiously waiting for 2017 to arrive so we can dig into the second season of the show. Literally so much happened in the first season finale that we don’t even know what to think!
While we haven’t learned much about the details of Season 2 other than it’s coming, Wednesday a few big details about the show’s second run were divulged.
Who will be the actress taking on the pivotal role of Harriet Tubman, who we were introduced to at the end of the season one finale?
None other than Aisha Hinds!
The actress was last seen starring in CBS’s Under the Dome. Also, Amirah Vann, arguably the show’s breakout star, has rightfully been upped from recurring to the main cast.
Jasika Nicole, who starred in Fringe, will be in a recurring role as an abolitionist on the Underground Railroad with a “quiet confidence” and secrets.
Jurnee Smollett-Bell (Rosalee), Aldis Hodge (Noah), Christopher Meloni (August), Alano Miller (Cato) and Jessica de Gouw (Elizabeth) will all be returning in their roles on the main cast, and Mark Blucas (John) is will be in a guest-starring role.
Who’s ready for Underground season 2?
