‘Copper’ Season 2 Kicks Off Filming!

Grab your brass knuckles, lace up your corsets, and throw out that stale fruitcake. Copper is back in action!

We're thrilled to announce that Copper Season Two kicks off filming this week, with a new face roaming the streets of Five Points. Veteran actor Donal Logue (Sons of Anarchy, Max Payne) joins the Copper cast this season as Brendan Donovan, a General who has recently returned from the battlefields of the Civil War. The political boss of the Sixth Ward is reasserting himself as one of the most influential and powerful men in the city's political machine. Wonder how that will play with big man on campus Detective Corcoran...

More exciting news: Accomplished writer/novelist, Thomas Kelly (Blue Bloods), also joins Copper as executive producer alongside showrunners Tom Fontana and Barry Levinson.

Oh, did we mention that Season Two has 13 episodes? (You were right, 10 installments last season wasn't nearly enough.)

A few Twitter highlights from your favorite reunited castmates:
