In a recent interview, the veteran film and television writer provided some insight into his plans for a potential sequel season for Prime Video\u2019s latest crime drama while also hinting at the potential season\u2019s cast.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Derek Haas says he wants to \u2018do multiple missions\u2019 in Countdown Season 2<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">During a conversation with <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/1212644\/countdown-finale-ending-explained-todd-oliveras-kidnapped-season-2-details\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:TV Insider;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">TV Insider<\/a>, Haas remarked that he intends for the next season of Countdown to cover a number of missions, provided that Prime Video green-lights it. Additionally, he also shared the cast members he\u2019d like to return, alongside characters that could debut in a potential Season 2.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI want to do multiple missions in a Season 2, not just this plus one. So I don\u2019t want to tell the audience when this would wrap up because I think that was a good shocker on [Episode] 10 and this one, I don\u2019t think it\u2019s easy from here,\u201d the 55-year-old producer said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Talking about how the dynamics between Oliveras, Julio, and Mark might develop, Haas noted, \u201cIf she survives, what\u2019s going to happen after this scene in that triangle is going to make for some really interesting episodes to come, if we get a Season 2.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI want everybody back,\u201d the series\u2019 creator said about Countdown Season 2\u2019s potential cast.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Haas then described the plans he has for Agent Keyonte Bell\u2019s arc, stating, \u201cIf we get a Season 2, I\u2019d like to meet his father. I don\u2019t have a cast idea in mine, but his father obviously looms over him shadow-wise. I think it\u2019d be an interesting thing to see.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Lastly, Haas detailed the possible storylines for Jensen Ackles and Eric Dane\u2019s characters in Countdown Season 2, noting, \u201cI think you would see some more Blythe\u2019s family. And then I think the biggest thing I want to do personal-wise in Season 2 that will get the audience very curious, is cast and have as a character Melinda Bates, the woman left at the altar by Meachum that Oliveras knows and knows her sister. I have a whole plan that will not just be a personal story for that character.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>Originally reported by Apoorv Rastogi on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.comingsoon.net\/tv\/news\/2023723-countdown-season-2-plot-cast-update-prime-video-jensen-ackles\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:ComingSoon;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">ComingSoon<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mandatory.com\/culture\/1658615-countdown-season-2-plot-cast-update-prime-video-jensen-ackles\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Countdown Creator Gives Exciting Plot &amp; Cast Update for Season 2;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Countdown Creator Gives Exciting Plot &amp; Cast Update for Season 2<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mandatory.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Mandatory;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Mandatory<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Even though the Jenson Ackles series Countdown has just finished debuting its first season, showrunner Derek Haas already seems to have charted out a rough blueprint for Season 2.
