TORONTO – May 18, 2012 -- Shaw Media, Entertainment One (eOne), Syfy, and Universal Networks International (UNI) are proud to announce Dorian Missick (Southland, The Cape) and Kate Kelton (Harold and Kumar, American Psycho 2) will join the cast of Showcase’s popular series Haven in recurring roles when the show returns for its third season this fall.
Kelton portrays the spirited and fierce “Jordan McKee.” She’s a waitress at “The Gun & Rose Diner,” and also an influential member of a mysterious organization of “troubled” people whose identity is known by the distinctive tattoo marking its members.
Missick plays “Tommy Bowen,” a street smart, big city detective who comes to Haven investigating a suspected serial killer case. A shrewd, calculating policeman, he’s also a fish out of water, completely mismatched with this small town.
Season three of Haven picks up immediately following the events of the gripping season two finale with Audrey having been brutally kidnapped; Nathan (Lucas Bryant) warned against pursuing a romantic relationship with Audrey; and Duke (Eric Balfour) seemingly engaged in a fight to the death with Nathan after he discovers his family lineage is to kill Haven citizens with troubles.
Haven, based on the novella The Colorado Kid from renowned author Stephen King, follows former FBI agent Audrey Parker, who becomes a cop in the small town of Haven, Maine, and soon discovers the town’s many secrets, which also hold the key to unlocking the mysteries of her lost past.
From leading independent studio Entertainment One (eOne), Havenisco-commissioned by Shaw Media in Canada and globally via Universal Networks International (UNI).
The creative team behind Haven includes executive producers John Morayniss (The Firm, Hell on Wheels) from eOne Television and David MacLeod (Legends of the Fall, The Ray Bradbury Theater) of Big Motion Pictures, who are joined by Lloyd Segan, Shawn Piller, Scott Shepherd (Stephen King’s The Dead Zone, Greek) of Piller/Segan/Shepherd and Matt McGuinness (Journeyman, Dark Blue) as well as Sam Ernst & Jim Dunn (Stephen King’s The Dead Zone), who also developed the series.
Haven is produced by Entertainment One and Big Motion Pictures in association with Piller/Segan/Shepherd and airs on Syfy in the U.S., Showcase in Canada and internationally on Universal Networks International’s channels. Entertainment One controls the worldwide distribution rights to the one-hour series and concluded a deal with Germany’s Tele München Group (TMG) for the television rights in Continental Europe.


Why so many new people? DNW.
ReplyDeleteJust can't believe we have to wait until September!
ReplyDeleteI liked it the way it was,a nice small group of characters..
ReplyDeleteI don't like the fact that we have a 4 month wait.
YES. What is this crap. I really liked having Haven as a summer show.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what they are thinking. Certainly it won't get better ratings in the fall when it is up against the slew of network series. SIGH.
It's supposed to be there for us to tide us over while we miss all our regular shows. And what's with bringing in more people? A detective? A fish out of water is an understatement. What for? The show was doing well on it's own with visitors - not alot of new people will work. What are they planning? A longer season? Or looking at a five season deal? It's all about the money and not about the story anymore.
ReplyDeleteMy god, the amount of bitching never ceases to amaze me. Just freaking wait for it to air and see how it turns out! Jesus.
ReplyDeleteWith only 5 comments posted about the show getting a rather late start this season,or about the amount of characters will now be on,your comment is a little extreme.
ReplyDeleteI was not just talking about Haven. As soon as new characters get introduced on shows I'm watching it always ends in one huge bitch fest, and frankly I'm tired of it. If you don't like my opinion, then don't reply to my comment. It's as simple as that.
ReplyDeleteIf you always find a hugh"bitch fest" go somewhere else.As simple as that.
ReplyDeleteUgggghhhhhhh-
ReplyDeleteNow the wait is that much longer....... OWell, what can you do but wait.
lol wow.
ReplyDeleteseptember seems far far away....
ReplyDeleteI do usually like lots of screen time for my core cast, but I was really hoping that they'd keep Adam Copeland in a bigger role. He was fun and I thought he had a valid place in the Haven universe with the whole clean-up thing. But I'd give him up if we got more Duke and less Jason Priestley.
ReplyDeleteI would love it if they gave Duke more screen time! It reminds me of the core group in Eureka,small town,small core group,it works well.They have enough people coming in and out of the show on a regular basis, and then they have the towns people that play minor rolls,it really works so smoothly...
