‘Trick ‘r Treat’ Star Rochelle Aytes Joins the Cast of “The Purge” TV Series
The second season of USA’s “The Purge” is headed our way later this year, and Deadline reports the latest casting news today. Rochelle Aytes, who played Maria in the werewolf segment of Michael Dougherty’s Trick ‘r Treat, has landed a recurring role in the new season.
Danika Yarosh (“Greenhouse Academy”) will also recur in the second season.
Aytes will play Michelle Moore, a woman who must rebuild her world after her peaceful existence is shattered when an assassin breaks into her and her husband Marcus’ home on Purge night. Yarosh is set as Kelen Stewart, a college student who tries to help her boyfriend Ben process the horrors he witnessed on Purge night.
Season 2, airing this coming fall, explores how a single Purge night affects the lives of four interconnected characters over the course of the ensuing year, all inevitably leading up to the next Purge. The second season of the anthology series opens on Purge night but dives deeper than ever before in to what the Purge world looks like the other 364 days of the year.
Derek Luke (13 Reasons Why), Max Martini (Pacific Rim), Paola Nuñez (The Son) and Joel Allen (Never Goin’ Back) are also starring in the new season.
