"How to Get Away with Murder" season 2 premiere is still two months away but what's waiting for the fans when it does arrive? Is the Keating 5 still complete?
Surely, one of those involved in murder of Sam (Tom Verica) is already gone after being killed by a yet to be identified suspect in season one finale. While one pivotal character is gone, one will take her place.
First detail regarding the "How to Get Away with Murder" season 2 premiere has been released and it concerns a new character.
Deadline reported that Kendrick Sampson, known for his roles in "Graceland" and "The Vampire Diaries" will debut his character in the hit TV series' second season pilot.
"EXCLUSIVE: Kendrick Sampson has signed on for a substantive recurring role in the upcoming season of ABC's How To Get Away With Murder. Details are being kept under wraps, but we're told Sampson's character will be introduced in the second season premiere on September 24," Deadline wrote.
It is not clear though what/who Sampson's character is to Annalise Keating (Viola Davis) or other mainstays.
While most of the details about "How to Get Away with Murder" season 2 premiere are still kept secrets, it is sure that Keating 5, a.k.a. the students who are involved in the hiding of the body of Sam, Annalise's husand, will remain intact.
"Annalise has had a lot of students before work for her. None of them killed her husband," series creator Peter Nowalk said last May. "So these people are bonded in ways that past students have not been."
Also assured in the second season is the relationship between Connor (Jack Falahee) and Oliver (Conrad Ricamora). In fact, this romance will play a bigger part.
"It's our goal to treat that in a way that's real and gives representation to a whole community of people that haven't been on network TV in a while," said Nowalk said when asked about the Oliver and Connor's HIV revelation. "Oliver and Connor are very important to me and they have a huge fan base. Their relationship will play a big part in season two."
"How to Get Away with Murder" season 2 premiere is September 24 this year.
