Luke Mitchell co-starred as Danny, a lawyer for the mining company who also happened to be the brother of the town’s new leader, high school history teacher Sarah (Stella Baker).

“I think The Republic of Sarah was such a beautiful little show, and I definitely would’ve loved exploring that character more and playing in that world more,” he says.



The drama tackled a difficult topic with nuance in its depiction of the complicated relationship between Danny and his alcoholic mother Ellen (Megan Follows), who physically abused her son when he was younger.

When I mention that the storyline was not one that you see very often on TV, Mitchell affirms, “No, and certainly not [on] The CW. It was pretty heavy subject matter.”

“I know for a fact that Jeffery [Paul] King, our showrunner, had five, six seasons mapped out already. So there was definitely plenty more story there to tell,” he continues.
