Aussie Luke Hemsworth Joins the Cast of Prime Video’s Global Hit Series “Deadloch” Season Two

Prime Video, Guesswork Television, and OK Great Productions today announced that Australian actor Luke Hemsworth will join lead cast members Kate Box, Madeleine Sami, Nina Oyama and Alicia Gardiner in Season Two of the Prime Video global hit series, Deadloch.

In the new season, Dulcie and Eddie are in Darwin investigating the death of Eddie’s former policing partner, Bushy, but when a body is discovered in a remote town, they are flung into a new sweatier, stickier investigation.

Created and written by powerhouse comedy minds, Kate McCartney and Kate McLennan, Hemsworth (Westworld, Thor: Love & Thunder) will play Jason Wade, creator and star of ‘Jason Wade’s Adventures Down Under‘ and the owner of ‘Jason Wade’s Land of Crocs and Other Animals‘ Wildlife Park.

Having completed filming in the Northern Territory, production has now moved to Queensland, utilising the Brisbane studios and for cast safety, the less croc infested waters.

Creators, executive producers, and writers Kate McCartney and Kate McLennan said, “Luke Hemsworth is joining our cast as croc-wrangling Territory icon, Jason Wade. We’re feeling very happy with ourselves about this because he’s perfect. It’s perfect casting.”

Previously announced new cast members include; Steve Bisley (The Great Gatsby, Mystery Road: Origin, Mad Max), Shari Sebbens (The Sapphires, Thor: Love and Thunder and The Office), Jean Tong (Safe Home, Heartbreak High), Genevieve Morris (Bloom, No Activity), Byron Coll (Time Bandits, The Luminaries), Nikki Britton (How to Stay Married), Anthony J Sharpe (Joe v Carole, Human Error), Blake Pavey (Urvi Went to an All Girls School), Damien Garvey (The Artful Dodger, Jack Irish, Rake), Ngali Shaw (The Twelve, Ladies in Black), Bev Killick (Savage River, Jones Family Christmas), Ling Cooper-Tang (Troppo, Apples Never Fall, Nautilus), Ursula Yovich (Top End Wedding, Mystery Road and the upcoming Top End Bub), Syd Brisbane (High Country, Stateless), Ines English (Last Days of the Space Age) and Lennox Monaghan (Windcatcher).

Deadloch Season Two is created and written by Kate McCartney and Kate McLennan who also serve as executive producers alongside Kevin Whyte and Tanya Phegan from Guesswork Television. Andy Walker is the producer and the series is directed by Beck Cole and Gracie Otto. Deadloch is produced by Guesswork Television, OK Great Productions and Amazon MGM Studios.
