M.C. Gainey (Django Unchained), Madelyn Deutch (Texas Rising) and Hoon Lee (Banshee) have joined the Season 2 cast of Cinemax exorcism drama Outcast from The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman and Chris Black. Production on the second season has begun in South Carolina.

Outcast follows Kyle Barnes (Patrick Fugit), a young man who has been plagued by possession since he was a child. In the second season, the exploration and mystery of what lies behind the supernatural manifestations and why they are drawn to Kyle continues. What Kyle has uncovered along the way could bring the end of life on Earth as we know it

Gainey will play Bob, a hermit who operates the junkyard on the edge of Rome. His brooding and eccentric demeanor conceals ties to Rome’s dark past. Deutch is Dakota, a free spirit who embraces an unconventional form of Christianity. Her perspective clashes with Reverend Anderson’s — and she ultimately reveals a knowledge of what it is that has befallen Rome. Lee will portray Dr. Kenneth Park, Chief of staff and an accomplished surgeon at Rome’s hospital, Dr. Park has his own cryptic agenda concerning Kyle.

Awesome finale.

Rev ****ed up big time. No real loss since he was a little ****. Hell, Sydney did warn his ass to stay away. Besides, it'll save the chief a whole lot of trouble of having to hunt him down after that **** he pulled at his home.

The daughter has the gift too 😮 Kyle's gotta be on her 24/7 now since she'll be targeted too. Scary little showdown at the end as they found themselves surrounded by the possesed.

Some interesting info Sydney dropped on Kyle. Looking forward to season 2. Poor Megan is going to be a mess. Sure she won't remember at first. But her daughter will remind her real quick. The poor kid's traumatized.
 
I totally didn't feel bad about what the rev did and who the victim is. :hehe:
 
Hoon Lee joining cast should be good. Was awesome actor in Banshee

Much like TWD , they are differing from the comics
 
Forgive me if I don't shed a tear for the [BLACKOUT]ginger[/BLACKOUT]. :o
 
Nice ending to a good season will be interesting where it goes from here. I hate all my summer shows seem to be ending about the same time. Oh well.

I can't wait!
 
I'm four episodes behind.
 
I forgot about this show so I went to it's reddit page looking for info... Looks like it's been cancelled according to someone who follows a Facebook page for extras casting info and they live in the area it films. Kirkman said Cinemax is still figuring out when to air season 2.
 
I doubt Cinemax canceled the show before season 2 has even aired.
 
Been watching season 2 online. Season finale is next week. Surprised to hear it hasn't even started on Cinemax.
 

I didnt know there were two links in that post. I only went to the imdb page.

Ill wait for an actual announcement from the showrunner or Cinemax before I count the show as dead. If it is canceled I wont even bother with season 2. Itd be a waste of my time.
 
Cinemax made the announcement that Quarry was canceled yesterday and the creators cited the network's new direction and HBO's regime change as reasons behind not receiving a second season order.

Outcast season 2 is airing internationally right now, wrapping up their season in the UK this weekend.

Given the low live ratings and that Cinemax probably outbid many networks to get this - it doesn't look good for a third season.

The second season order came months before the first season aired. They definitely had faith in it but the viewership numbers weren't great and Cinemax has decided to do cheaper action shows or co-productions like a new Strike Back series.

Cinemax isn't airing any original programming right now so how hard is it to pick 9-10 weeks to air the show?

What is cinemax's new direction? Cancelling quality shows?
 
I wonder if AMC would pick the show up if it is cancelled given they already make Kirkman's other show.
 
If the viewer numbers arent good no other cablr network will touch it. Netflix, Amazon, or Hulu would be its best bet. Outcast should have been on HBO, anyways.
