After appearing in almost all episodes of "The Bridge‘s" first season, recurring cast members Emily Rios and Matthew Lillard are being promoted to regulars for Season 2.
The move also signals their characters’ increasing importance in the upcoming storyline.
Rios and Lillard play El Paso Times reporters Ariana Mendez and Daniel Frye. In the season one finale, the two came across a home filled with cash that will lead to an investigation on both sides of the border in the second season.
"The Bridge" also is undergoing a behind-the-scenes change, with Meredith Stiehm, who developed the series with Elwood Reid and served as executive producer/co-showrunner on Season 1, returning to Showtime’s "Homeland" full-time, with Reid taking over day-to-day-responsibilities on "The Bridge".
Stiehm remains an executive producer.
