A Trio of Fan-Favorite Actors Brings New Energy to the Series
John Stamos: A TV Icon Returns to Drama
John Stamos’ addition to The Hunting Wives immediately heightens the buzz surrounding Season 2.

Dale Dickey: A Master of Gritty Storytelling
Dale Dickey, one of Hollywood’s most respected character actresses, joins the cast as Zelda Moffitt. Dickey is widely recognized for her acclaimed performance as Merab in Winter’s Bone, as well as standout roles in True Blood and Prime Video’s Fallout.
Her ability to bring emotional depth to complex characters suggests Zelda Moffitt could become a pivotal player in Season 2’s unfolding mystery.
Cam Gigandet: Action and Drama Veteran
Cam Gigandet rounds out the trio as Gentle John Moffitt. Gigandet first gained attention as rebellious Kevin Volchok on The O.C. before starring in films such as Burlesque and the holiday action thriller Violent Night.
Known for his charismatic yet unpredictable screen presence, Gigandet’s character is likely to inject fresh tension—and possibly danger—into the upcoming season.
Returning Cast and New Faces Build a Strong Ensemble
Stamos, Dickey, and Gigandet join previously announced Season 2 newcomers Kim Matula and Alex FitzAlan, as well as returning series leads Brittany Snow, Malin Akerman, Jaime Ray Newman, Dermot Mulroney, Evan Jonigkeit, George Ferrier, Karen Rodriguez, Hunter Emery, and Branton Box.
This blend of fresh talent and established cast members positions Season 2 to deliver even bigger twists and emotional stakes than the first.
What to Expect in Season 2 of The Hunting Wives
Based on May Cobb’s best-selling novel, The Hunting Wives follows the tangled relationships, obsessions, and dangerous secrets of a group of affluent Texas women. Season 2 picks up with Sophie (Brittany Snow) and Margo (Malin Akerman) no longer on good terms. But according to the official logline, old grudges don’t stay buried for long.
As “old secrets and new foes force them back together,” the season explores a chilling question that has haunted the series since the beginning:
Are they the hunters—or the hunted?
Expect high drama, shifting alliances, and the stylishly dark tone that defined Season 1.
Behind the Scenes: Creative Team and Production
Rebecca Cutter returns as creator and showrunner, continuing to guide the adaptation with her signature mix of suspense and character-driven storytelling. Cutter executive produces alongside author May Cobb and 3 Arts Entertainment’s Erwin Stoff. Lionsgate remains the studio behind the series.
With new characters entering the fold—and new dangers emerging—Season 2 of The Hunting Wives is shaping up to be a must-watch installment for fans of psychological thrillers.
