All Rise is officially coming back. OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network has closed a deal for a 20-episode third season of the Warner Bros TV-produced legal drama starring Simone Missick, which was cancelled by CBS in May. The new season is slated to air in 2022.
The bulk of the series’ cast, including Missick, Wilson Bethel, Jessica Camacho, J. Alex Brinson, Ruthie Ann Miles, Lindsay Mendez and Lindsey Gort, are set to return. Since the options on the actors had expired in June following the drama’s cancellation by CBS, they had to make new deals and all scored raises.
Not coming back is Marg Helgenberger, who in July was cast in NBC’s drama pilot Getaway. Ironically, the pilot cast both Helgenberger and Manifest‘s Matt Long, preventing them from returning full time to their previous series, which beat the odds to both get uncanceled with new seasons on OWN and Netflix, respectively. The door is open to Helgenberger and any other All Rise alums to appear on the new season subject to availability.
