We are excited to announce that Ontario-born WWE Superstar Edge will join the cast of Haven in the guest-starring role of “Dwight Hendrickson”.  A shrewd, longtime Haven resident, Dwight served as a confidant to Nathan’s (Lucas Bryant) late father and assisted the former sheriff in keeping particularly suspicious supernatural activity under wraps. Now as acting Sheriff of Haven, Nathan finds himself reaching out to Dwight just as his father did before him.

As previously announced, Vinessa Antoine (Being Erica, Soul Food) joined the cast as Evi Ryan, and Jason Priestley (who stars in, directs and produces the dark comedy Call Me Fitz) will also come to Haven this season to direct one episode and guest star in a four-episode story arc. Antoine and Priestley will join Emily Rose, who plays "Audrey Parker," a former FBI agent with a knack for investigating the supernatural; Lucas Bryant, who plays "Nathan Wuornos," a handsome local cop with his own supernatural affliction; and Eric Balfour, who plays "Duke Crocker," a local smuggler and reluctant aide in solving Haven's troubles.

Haven is based on The Colorado Kid from renowned author Stephen King and is currently production on season two in Nova Scotia. Haven will premiere on Monday, July 18 on Showcase.

We'll have loads of Haven content right here at showcase.ca this summer, including full streaming episodes -- but in the meantime, check out our blog series from Season 1 which examines the hows, wherefores and whys concerning various adaptations of Stephen King’s works, beginning and ending with the one that brought us and agent Audrey Parker to coastal Maine in the first place, Haven.
