‘Tracker’ Casts Justin Hartley as New Love Interest Between Returning Sofia Pernas
Justin Hartley’s Colter will be kissing someone new in season 2 of Tracker — but it won’t be his wife, Sofia Pernas.
According to TVLine, Floriana Lima has been cast as someone from Colter’s past named Camille. Camille is described as “haunting and compelling” in addition to being Colter’s “on-again, off-again” lover for at least the past 10 years.
“Camille’s sister went missing 10 years ago and her case was never solved — which causes some trauma for both Camille and Colter on each anniversary of her disappearance, but also leads them to reconnect, at least for one evening,” the character description shared on the site reads.
Lima’s character was briefly seen kissing Colter in the official season 2 trailer. The trailer also confirmed that Hartley’s wife will reprise her role as Billie, aka another woman who has a romantic past with Colter.

Justin Hartley and Sofia Pernas’ Best Scenes from ‘Tracker’ Ahead of Season 2
In season 1 of the hit CBS series, fans learned that Colter had met Billie, who was also on the hunt for a reward.
“I just thought that would be a really cool idea. It was my idea from the beginning when I had that character that you just mentioned,” Hartley, 47, explained to Deadline in May. “I think in the second episode, there’s a big reward for a car. There’s a line where one of the women says, ‘Word on the street is that Billie’s on the case.’ And then Coulter rolled his eyes. If you’re really paying attention, you’re like, ‘Oh, he’s got a rival, this guy Billie.'”
Hartley, who is also an executive producer on the procedural, laid the groundwork for Pernas’ character before she even showed up.
“My idea was to tease that and intentionally name the character Billie, and then reveal that Billie, of course, is Sofia. We didn’t tease that as much as I would have liked, just because we were so busy. But that was the intention,” he continued. “Then when she showed up, honestly, I’m not sure how much of the character aspect she brought was actually written.”

While filming season 2, Hartley opened up about reuniting with Pernas, 35.
“She’s amazing. “I mean, if I had the choice, I would spend every minute with her,” he told Us Weekly in July. “What’s really great is when you meet someone who means so much to you, who you’re so proud to be around and proud of, and a fan of, and get to see her work, because she’s such a talented actress. She elevates the scenes, and that really makes my job easier. But yeah, it’s been great working with her.” Tracker returns to CBS on Sunday, October 13, at 8 p.m. ET. New episodes will stream the following day on Paramount+.
