TORONTO, ON (January 13, 2016) Today, City announced the start of production on the second season of Between, the original survivalist thriller series created by award-winning writer/director Michael McGowan (Still Mine, One Week, Saint Ralph) and starring Jennette McCurdy (iCarly) and Jesse Carere (Skins).

We are extremely proud of the tremendous success and reception we've received from season one, pushing Between to be the #1 original series on our network said Nataline Rodrigues, Director of Original Programming, Rogers. By investing in Michael McGowan's vision, we will continue to deliver compelling, world-class content to our audiences in Canada and around the globe.
In season one, a virulent disease swept through the idyllic town of Pretty Lake, leaving everyone over the age of 21 dead in its wake and the town quarantined. Season two will continue Wiley (Jennette McCurdy) and Adam's (Jesse Carere) journey into discovering the cause of the deadly virus as the battle for survival is toughened by a diminishing food supply, harsh winter, and lawlessness among peers.
Returning cast for Between's second season include Justin Kelly as Chuck, Kyle Mac as Ronnie, Ryan Allen as Gord, and Shailyn Pierre Dixon as Franny. Joining the cast this season are Steven Grayhm (The Family Tree, The Five People You Meet in Heaven) as Liam Cullen, a mysterious visitor who claims to have the answer to the epidemic that has ravaged the small town, and Mercedes Morris ( Forest Fairies) as Ren e, the powerful leader of an off-the-grid cult located on the edge of Pretty Lake.
We're thrilled to be returning for a second season of Between and continuing our partnership with City, said Executive Producer Don Carmody. Together with the talented cast and crew, we're looking forward to delivering another riveting chapter of the show to audiences worldwide.
