Blindspot has some new company. Deadline reports Luke Mitchell and Michelle Hurd have been cast in season two of the NBC series.
The drama follows the investigation of Jane Doe (Jamie Alexander), a mysterious woman who has no memory and is covered with tattooed clues to her past. The cast also includes Sullivan Stapleton, Rob Brown, Audrey Esparza, and Ashley Johnson.
Both Mitchell and Hurd will play “operatives from Jane Doe’s past.” The two join fellow new castmember Archie Panjabi, who has been cast as an NSA agent for the upcoming season.
Series creator Martin Gero teased some details about season two at this year’s Comic-Con:

Season two of Blindspot premieres on September 14th.
