‘Travelers’ moves to Netflix, Eric McCormack to direct
McCormack stars in the show, now confirmed for a third season
After much anticipation, a third season of ‘Travelers’ has now been confirmed. The show’s star and producer, Eric McCormack, shared the news in a video message on Twitter.
Shortly afterwards, he also posted a press release about the new season, revealing that he will direct the season premiere and that the show will be moving from Showcase to Netflix.
“Before I was Will Truman again, I was a Traveler. And I am so excited to be able to tell our fans, worldwide, that Brad Wright’s subtle and stunning sci-fi drama is back for a third season. I am so proud of this show, particularly that it’s all-Canadian. From our devoted Vancouver crew, to an uber-talented young cast who hail from Alberta, B.C., Manitoba and Ontario, to my producing partners and our Toronto roots, [‘Travelers’] is a series as Canadian in its creation, as it is global in scope,” said McCormack.
“I am counting the days ‘til I return, not just as Special Agent Grant MacLaren, and as a producer, but as the director of the 3rd season premiere. [‘Travelers’] will continue to be unwavering in its dedication to Canadian talent, and in its drive to be one of the strongest, most binged shows on Netflix.”
