Syfy Greenlights Season Three of Drama Series BITTEN

Leading independent studio, Entertainment One (eOne) is thrilled to announce 10 episodes of the supernatural thriller BITTEN will return to Syfy for a third season.

Based on the best-selling series of novels by Kelley Armstrong and produced by No Equal Entertainment, eOne, and Hoodwink Entertainment, Season three sees the return of genre icon Laura Vandervoort (SMALLVILLE, Ted) as Elena Michaels; Greyston Holt (ALCATRAZ, DURHAM COUNTY) as Clayton Danvers; Greg Byrk (A History Of Violence, ROOKIE BLUE) as Jeremy Danvers; Steve Lund (BEING ERICA, HAVEN) as Nick Sorrentino, and Genelle Williams (WAREHOUSE 13) as Rachel Sutton. Production will begin this summer in Toronto.

As previously announced, BITTEN season three was also picked up by Bell Media's Space in Canada where seasons one and two were the most watched Space original program of all time.

"We're delighted that Bitten will be returning to Syfy," said John Morayniss, Chief Executive Officer, Entertainment One Television. "Alongside No Equal Entertainment and Hoodwink Entertainment, we are thrilled to continue this incredible journey and looking forward to sinking our teeth into what's sure to be another nail-biting season."

Chris Regina, SVP Program Strategy at Syfy and Chiller commented "Bitten's emotional and engrossing storyline, combined with some truly creepy horror moments, really resonated with fans this past season. We eagerly anticipate seeing where the next chapter of Elena and her werewolf pack's lives leads us in Season 3."

"I'm excited to continue Bitten's success with a pickup of our third season by Syfy and look forward to working with the talented writing and production team to bring more adventures with our Pack to life," said J.B. Sugar, Executive Producer, No Equal Entertainment.
