Space announced today that production has begun on Season 3 of its smash-hit original thriller Bitten – the series is set to premiere in 2016 on Space and will consist of 10 episodes.
To be shot on location in Toronto, Hamilton, and Hespeler, Ontario, Season 3 sees the return of Laura Vandervoort (Smallville, Ted) as Elena Michaels; Greyston Holt (Alcatraz, Durham County) as Clayton Danvers; Greg Bryk (A History Of Violence, Rookie Blue) as Jeremy Danvers; and Steve Lund (Being Erica, Haven) as Nick Sorrentino.
Joining the cast this year is John Ralston (Degrassi), Alex Ozerov (Orphan Black), and Sofia Banzhaf (Republic of Doyle) as mysterious new characters who throw Elena’s and The Pack’s lives into disarray. Also returning are Tommie-Amber Pirie (Michael: Tuesdays & Thursdays) as Paige Winterbourne, and Genelle Williams (Warehouse 13) as Rachel Sutton.
“The thriller with teeth returns, and with the engaging Laura Vandervoort leading The Pack, there is no doubt that Season 3 will satisfy Bitten’s loyal followers,” said Corrie Coe, Senior Vice-President of Independent Production at Bell Media, in a press release. “We look forward to working with this talented cast, crew, and production partners on delivering another gripping season of this inimitable series.”
“I am so proud of the series we have all worked so hard to create,” said Executive Producer and Director, J.B. Sugar. “Together with my partners at Hoodwink, eOne, and Bell Media, we feel very fortunate to bring another season of Pack action to our loyal fan base in Canada and around the world.”
Season 3 of Bitten finds The Pack several months after a harrowing and bloody battle. Once again, there are challenges and tensions within the ranks of the Council of International Alphas. This time, a rogue former member and his supporters create tension, posing a direct threat to The Pack. Meanwhile, Elena struggles with Jeremy’s new draconian leadership style, as she makes some shocking and surprising discoveries about herself.
Bitten currently airs in major territories around the world including Germany, Australia, and Scandinavia.
