While much of the cast of “Dr. Death” season 2 hasn’t been announced yet, the series has found its lead in Edgar Ramirez. Ramirez has appeared in films like “Jungle Cruise” and “The Bourne Ultimatum” and shows like “The Undoing,” but his most instantly recognizable role was in “The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story.” The actor played Versace himself, the doomed fashion designer who lost his life at the hands of Andrew Cunanan (Darren Criss).
“Dr. Death” has yet to cast its Benita, but it does have a full slate of directors, writers, and producers on board. Ashley Michel Hoban, who worked on the show’s first season as well as on the true crime miniseries “The Girl From Plainville,” will serve as showrunner, executive producer, and writer. Jennifer Morrison, who also directed season 1 episodes but is best known as an actress on “House” and “Once Upon a Time,” will helm four of the season’s episodes. “The Walking Dead” and “Arrow” filmmaker Laura Belsey will direct the other four.
Executive producers for “Dr. Death” season 2 include Patrick Macmanus, Todd Black, Jason Blumenthal, Steve Tisch, Taylor Latham, Aaron Hart, Hernan Lopez, Marshall Lewy, and Linda Gase.
