CBC-TV’s newest drama series now has a top flight cast ready to begin filming Sept. 10 in Mill Cove, N.S., located 35 miles southwest of Halifax.
Black Harbour, devised and co-produced by Wayne Grigsby and Barbara Samuels, the creators of the long-run North Of 60, will star Rebecca Jenkins, the best actress Genie Award winner for Bye Bye, Blues playing a Nova Scotia native who moves back home because of her mother’s illness after a successful career in Los Angeles running a hot restaurant.
Forever Knight’s Geraint Wyn Davies plays her alcohol-loving Hollywood movie director husband who angrily accompanies her; Alex Carter, a detective on CTV’s short-lived Taking The Falls, as her former Nova Scotia boat-builder boyfriend who still yearns for her and Joseph Ziegler, an anxiety ridden doctor on CBC’s lackluster Side Effects series, plays her stay-at-home brother.
Black Harbour has its premiere early December in a Wednesday at 9 p.m. spot and initially 13 hour-long episodes will be filmed.
