Designated Survivor has some new company. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Zoe McLellan has joined season two of the ABC TV show.
The political thriller follows Tom Kirkman (Kiefer Sutherland), a lower-level Cabinet member, who ends up becoming the President of the United States after an attack on the Capitol. The cast also includes Natascha McElhone, Adan Canto, Italia Ricci, LaMonica Garrett, Tanner Buchanan, Kal Penn, and Maggie Q.
On Designated Survivor, McLellan will play “Kendra Daynes, a brilliant and wily attorney who lands her dream job as White House counsel.” She joins fellow new cast members Paulo Costanzo and Ben Lawson.
Season two of Designated Survivor debuts this fall on ABC.
What do you think? Did you watch season one of Designated Survivor? Will you watch season two?
Thrilled to read that Zoe McLellan is joining the cast of one of my favorite shows! I enjoyed her work on JAG and was so unhappy when she left NCIS: New Orleans. Now, her talent will be added to that of the existing cast on DS.
Love! Keep ’em coming please
Love this show and love Zoe McClellan. Great addition. Can’t wait for S2.
Great show.
Great show, needs few seasons more
Fantastic choice to bring Zoe McLellan aboard! This series is a huge success, very credible writing, tense drama even for this ex-military chap. Kiefer brings it all home with his supporting actors who should all be so proud of their work.
Yes, I will be watching season two of Designated Survivor. I did not think I would like the show, but soon enough I found myself beng watching the first season late at night. If only we could really have a President like Tom Kirkman.
Brilliant series have been waiting for the next will definitely watch can’t wait
LOVE this show!! Keeps me on the edge of my seat!!!
Was so happy to see Keifer Sutherland again. We were addicted to “24” and thought we would never see Keifer Sutherland in a show that would compare but then we watched Designed Survivor. We were hooked after the first show!! We can’t wait for fall.
LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!! CANNOT WAIT for season 2 so how about a premiere date already?!
Is all the original cast coming back? Good story line liked watching. Not another 24 with Keifer but enough action.
Great show!
Loved it!! Great drama and story!!
We LOVED it & can’t wait for season 2!!!!!!!
