Timeless Season 2: Show will “dig deeper into the characters”

Posted Filed under

It’s this season’s miracle child, coming back from the dead mere days after its cancellation at US home NBC – Timeless was back at San Diego Comic-Con this weekend to preview season two.

Executive producer Eric Kripke said at the panel: “I got a call from NBC and they said we made a mistake and we’re picking up the show.”

Because of the circumstances, Timeless didn’t bring anything in the way of new footage or announcements, but it did bring a lot of gratitude for the fans. Details of season two, which returns to US screens in 2018 (and presumably UK soon after), are still murky.

“”We’re at the beginning of the process,” said co-creator Shawn Ryan. “We have ideas, nothing set in stone. One thing I’m excited about in season two is that we can dig deeper into the characters.”

Kripke continued: “Lucy’s mom is going to be one of the major Big Bads. And Rittenhouse does have their hands on the time machine. That’s way worse than Garcia having his hands on the time machine. Garcia and the [time] team find themselves facing a common enemy”.

Timeless stars Matt Lanter, Abigail Spencer, Malcolm Barrett and Goran Visnjic. Watch the cast interview with TVLine below.

Timeless airs on E4 in the UK.
