As Tracker prepares to return for Season 2 this fall, the show has shared some first-look images ahead of the premiere, giving fans a glimpse at the characters. The hit drama, starring Justin Hartley as Colter Shaw, has become one of the most anticipated shows of the year, especially after the promising first season gave us such a welcome old-school TV experience. Check out the new images from Tracker Season 2 below.
The new images released by CBS depict various characters from the second season, including Colter Shaw, who appears to be busy following up on new leads in the growing cases. Other characters seen in the images include Abby McEnany’s Velma Bruin and Fiona Rene’s Reenie Greene, both of whom are holding cell phones, likely hinting at an important conversation on both ends.
The first images are notably missing Robin Weigert, who played Teddi Bruin, Abby’s wife in the first season of Tracker. The reason for this is because the CBS series suffered a major setback after Season 1, with the departure of one of the show’s regular cast members, Weigert, who will not be reprising her role. This certainly threw many fans off, given her pivotal role as Shaw’s handler in Season 1. Robin Weigert’s absence will be felt throughout the next season, as her acting talent is not something Tracker fans will soon forget. Neither CBS nor 20th Television have explained why Weigert is leaving the series, but on the bright side, Jensen Ackles has been confirmed to return for the second episode of Tracker Season 2. Stream on Paramount + Stream on Paramount + Stream on Paramount + Stream on Paramount + While we have yet to see an official trailer for Tracker Season 2, CBS has released the official description for the first episode of the next season, “Out of the Past.” While it doesn’t necessarily provide a clear indication of where the entire next season will go, knowing Colter Shaw’s latest mystery is more than enough for now.
While investigating the strange disappearance of a missing family whose car was found abandoned on the side of a road in the Arkansas backwoods, Colter makes a shocking discovery about his mother’s past that leads him into the world of organized crime. Additionally, Reenie opens her new law firm and enlists Velmas’ help in setting it up.
As previously stated, Jensen Ackles’ Russell Shaw will appear in the second episode, but depending on his role in the story, he may stick around for the entire season. Perhaps we’ll be one step closer to solving the mystery of Ashton Shaw’s death, especially after Russell and Colter reconciled in the first season.
The mystery TV shows on this list have mastered the art of weaving together complex plots, nuanced characters, and simply addictive storytelling.
Tracker, created by Ben H. Winters, is based on Jeffrey Deaver’s 2019 novel The Never Game. The first season premiered on February 11, 2024, with episodes airing weekly until May. With the second season less than a month away, audiences are eagerly awaiting the next mysteries to be revealed.
