‘Another Life’: Katee Sackhoff Sci-fi Gets Season 2 Trailer & October Premiere On Netflix

by Dave Elliott

Netflix has released a Season 2 trailer and announced an October premiere for Another Life, the sci-fi drama starring Battlestar Galactica’s Katee Sackhoff.

The series follows Commander Niko Breckinridge (Sackhoff) on humanity’s first interstellar mission to the origin planet of a mysterious alien artefact that has landed on Earth. Whilst Niko flies toward the unknown, her husband Erik tries to make first contact with the artefact back on earth. ‘Another Life’ explores the miracle of life, how precious life is in a universe mostly empty of it, and the lengths we will go to protect the ones we love.

As we head into Season 2, the stakes couldn’t get higher when Niko and her crew witness the annihilation of a planet. How do you negotiate with aliens capable of such brutality?

Alongside Sackhoff’s Niko, her crew consists of Samuel Anderson (‘Trollied’, ‘Doctor Who’), who takes the role of William, a holographic interface of a sentient A.I. Neither a futuristic Tin Man, nor a robot who pines to be human, William is a new form of life with the knowledge of all humanity at his disposal; Elizabeth Faith Ludlow (‘Satisfaction’, ‘The Walking Dead’) as Cas Isakovic, Niko’s second-in-command and staunchest ally, filled with courage and moral conviction; A.J. Rivera (‘Grandfathered’) as Bernie Martinez, Salvare’s microbiologist and part-time chef; Alex Ozerov (‘Orphan Black’) as Oliver Sokolov, a Salvare engineer; Alexander Eling (‘Tiny Pretty Things’) as Javier Almanzar, a former hacker and now Salvare’s expert in computer engineering; Blu Hunt (‘The Originals’) as August Catawnee, the lead engineer and youngest crewmember of the Salvare; And JayR Tinaco (‘Space Force’) as Zayn Petrossian, Salvare’s medic.

Back on Earth, returning cast includes Justin Chatwin (‘Shameless US’, ‘Orphan Black’) stars as Erik Wallace, part of the United States Interstellar Command, dedicated to finding intelligent life out in the universe and husband of Commander Niko Breckenridge; Selma Blair (‘American Crime Story’, ‘Cruel Intentions’) as 21st-century media influencer Harper Glass, who uses journalism, social media and keen intelligence in an attempt to break one of the biggest stories in human history; And Lina Renna as Jana Breckinridge-Wallace, the daughter of Niko and Erik.

New cast this season includes Tongayi Chirisa (‘iZombie’), Dillon Casey (‘Designated Survivor’), Shannon Chan-Kent (‘Good Trouble’), Kurt Yaeger (‘L.A.’s Finest’, ‘NCIS: Los Angeles’) and Carlena Britch (‘Charmed’).

‘Another Life‘ comes from creator/showrunner Aaron Martin (‘Slasher’, ‘Saving Hope’, ‘Killjoys’) and producer Noreen Halpern (‘Alias Grace’) through Halfire Entertainment, both of whom are executive producing.

Another Life‘ Season 2 premieres Thursday, 14th October 2021 On Netflix UK and worldwide.
