Everything we know about Counterpart season 2

With a trend of mind-bending head trippy shows like Mr. Robot, Black Mirror, and Cary Funkajawa’s Jonah Hill and Emma Stone starring limited series Maniac, Starz moody sci-fi series Counterpart starring J.K. Simmons fits right in with the best of the best. The show won over fans and critics alike, and while the show was beginning production on the new season before the last one finished, it was really inevitable that it would be back.  Here is everything you need to know about Counterpart season 2. 

Counterpart season 2 plot 

Created and written by Justin Marks, the series follows Simmons’ character Howard Silk as he uncovers the top secret government organization that he works for is actually covering up a parallel world to our own that the government uses to exploit to benefit our society. In the first season, Silk made contact with his … ahem… “Counterpart” to try and blow the whole conspiracy wide open.

Famed character actor James Cromwell will be joining the cast this season as Yanek, the warden of the underground prison that is holding Silk hostage. Ramon de Ocampo of the hit SyFy series 12 Monkeys told his Twitter followers recently that he will be joining the cast in some form, but there are no details yet about the role.
