Production

Syfy renewed the show for a second season on May 10, 2013.[13][14] Production began in Toronto in August 2013, one month after the season one finale. William Atherton and Anna Hopskins' castings were announced on September 5, 2013 while season 2 was in production.[15] James Murray joined the main cast as Defiance's new mayor Niles Pottinger.[15] In addition, Jesse Rath was promoted to series regular.[15] Season one guest star Robin Dunne returned as two different characters. Noah Danby's character was originally going to get killed last season, but was brought back for season 2 due to the praise Danby received for his performance.[16]
