By

If you are still wondering if 'The Leftovers' Season 2 is happening, the answer is absolutely yes. In fact, there will be a lot of changes to happen in the sophomore season. The reboot will not only be limited to the storyline and new setting, which was from New York now to Texas. We will also get to see new faces. Latest recruit is the 'X-Files' actor Steven Williams.

Weeks before 'The Leftovers' Season 1 ended last year, the HBO already confirmed that the supernatural drama will have a second season. Next thing fans knew, the upcoming season will be very different than the first one. Reports revealed that the show is getting creative reboot. One of which is the setting, which is now located in Texas, rather than New York.

Now, 'The Leftovers' Season 2 is also eyeing on getting new characters. Previously, the show added the Regina King from 'America Crime'. Its latest recruit is the Mr. X on 'The X-Files', Steven Williams. He will be playing a guy named Virgil, who is an opposing character to Kevin Garvey (Justin Theroux). Though we may see new faces, some characters that we have known in the first season will not be seen. One of which is Ann Dowds. Fans of her character, late Guilty Remnant leader Patti, will really be heartened to learn that we may not have seen the last of the cranky creeper.

Another, the show's co-creator Damon Lindelof is getting an inspiration from Tom Perrotta's book 'The Wire' for 'The Leftovers' Season 2. In a recent interview, Lindolf explained that he was totally captivated by the "audacity and boldness of just shifting the storytelling down to the docks." And he added that he is not afraid to shake things up and do something daring for the coming season.
