New Additions for Season 2

Hoechlin and Tulloch are definitely returning for Season 2, and Jordan Elsass and Alex Garfin, who play the Kent sons are also back.

Many of the other characters seen in Season 1 will return, including Tayler Buck as Natalie Irons, who has been promoted to a series regular. Ian Bohen will also join the cast as Lt. Mitch Anderson in Season 2.
