TNT has renewed the hit drama series DALLAS for a third season. Produced by Warner Horizon Television, Dallas centers on the Ewing clan, an enormously wealthy Texas family whose sibling rivalries, romantic betrayals, corruption and even murder are truly legendary. TNT has ordered 15 episodes for the third season, which is slated to launch in early 2014.
"Dallas has
Built a passionately loyal following with its expertly woven storylines, clever twists and turns, and numerous outstanding performances by a cast that spans generations," said
Michael Wright, president, head of programming for TNT,
TBS and Turner Classic Movies (TCM). "Although we said goodbye to
Larry Hagman and his iconic character J.R. Ewing this year, Dallas has many more stories left to tell, and the Ewing clan will continue to honor J.R.'s memory by keeping its audience surprised and delighted."
TNT's Dallas stars
Patrick Duffy as Bobby Ewing, who is now the senior member of the Ewing family following the death of his older brother, J.R. Ewing.
Linda Gray stars as Sue Ellen Ewing, J.R.'s former wife and the mother of his son,
John Ross, played by
Josh Henderson.
Jesse Metcalfe is Christopher, Bobby's adopted son, and
Jordana Brewster is Elena Ramos, who grew up in the Ewing household and is now fighting for her own family's legacy.
Julie Gonzalo is Pamela Rebecca Barnes, Christopher's ex-wife and the daughter of Cliff Barnes (
Ken Kercheval), a longtime rival of the Ewings.
Brenda Strong stars as Bobby's wife, Ann, while Mitch Pileggi stars as Harris Ryland, Ann's scheming ex-husband. The ensemble cast also includes
Emma Bell as Emma Brown, a sheltered beauty whose father has taught her to distrust the world around her, and Kuno Becker as Drew Ramos, Elena's troubled brother who has recently returned to Southfork.
