TVLine

In announcing the wrestling drama starring Stephen Amell and Alexander Ludwig is returning for a second season, Starz also revealed that Trey Tucker, who plays Bobby Pin, and Robby Ramos, who portrays Diego Cottonmouth, have been promoted to series regulars. “It’s clear from the critical and fan acclaim that the stories and characters from the Duffy Wrestling League have made a connection with audiences bringing a community that is not often found to premium TV,” Starz president Jeffrey Hirsch said in a statement. “I’m excited for our amazing cast and executive producers to get back into the ring together for a second season.” After Season 1 ended on Oct. 1, Heels creator Michael Waldron discussed with TVLine his hopes for a second season. “You can argue that some of the best matches and storylines (in wrestling) are happening in the women’s division. There’s that same opportunity for growth and expansion within the DWL, so it’s going to be interesting to see what Jack does with them,” Waldron said. “Kelli Berglund is obviously incredible, and what it would be like to bring in some rivals for her could be a lot of fun.”
