Everything about Wynonna Earp, eh?

Space’s Wynonna Earp begins production on Season 3; plus exclusive first-look photos

From a media release:

Returning to the land of gunpowder and grudges, Space announces production on Season 3 of its original, CSA-nominated for Best Writing in a Drama series WYNONNA EARP, is underway. The 12-episode, one-hour, western sci-fi series created by Emily Andras films in Calgary and surrounding area until May 2018. Canadian actor Melanie Scrofano returns as the titular demon hunter and heroine Wynonna Earp. The writing team spearheaded by Andras includes Brendon Yorke, Shelley Scarrow, Noelle Carbone, Caitlin Fryers, and Matt Doyle. Directors are Paolo Barzman, April Mullen, Ron Murphy, and Grant Harvey. Produced by Calgary-based SEVEN24 Films, and distributed globally by IDW Entertainment, Season 3 of WYNONNA EARP is set to return to Space later this year.

Following an emotional and surprising Season 2 finale that saw Wynonna (Scrofano), give birth to the next Earp heir, she’s now hell-bent on dispatching all remaining Revenants and other supernatural beings to end the cycle of violence between future heirs and Wyatt Earp’s demonic outlaws. Armed with Wyatt’s demon-killing six-shooter, Peacemaker, and her battle-seasoned team of demon hunters Doc Holliday (Tim Rozon, BEING HUMAN), Agent Xavier Dolls (Shamier Anderson, Race), Waverly Earp (Dominique Provost-Chalkley, Avengers: Age of Ultron), Nicole Haught (Katherine Barrell, WORKIN’ MOMS), and Jeremy Chetri (Varun Saranga, WORKIN’ MOMS), Wynonna challenges fate, faces new foes, and makes life-altering sacrifices in order to break the curse once and for all.

Season 2 of WYNONNA EARP saw its total audience increase by 30% compared to Season 1, and had an increase of 46% in the key A18-49 demo. During its Fridays at 10 p.m. ET timeslot, Space was the most-watched entertainment specialty network among A18-49 viewers.

WYNONNA EARP was developed for television by Emily Andras who also serves as executive producer, writer, and showrunner. Executive producers are Jordy Randall (HEARTLAND), Tom Cox (YOUNG DRUNK PUNK), David Ozer, Ted Adams, Rick Jacobs, and Todd Berger. Brian Dennis (THE BEST LAID PLANS) is producer.

WYNONNA EARP is produced by SEVEN24 Films in association with Space and Bell Media and distributed by IDW Entertainment.

From Eric Volmers of the Calgary Herald:

Link: ‘Everything has been escalated’ for Season 3 of Alberta-shot Wynonna Earp
“We have a lead character who is essentially a superhero who has had to give up her baby in order to protect her. What that leads us back to is a more fierce and determined, even kamikaze-type Wynonna Earp. She is back in fighting form. She is drinking her whisky and firing her guns but now she has this thing haunting her.” Continue reading.

From Bridget Liszewski of The TV Junkies:

Link: Wynonna Earp’s Katherine Barrell on a possible darker past for Nicole
“The world is moving so fast, and there are so many real dangers, that the baby puts a lot of stuff in perspective. When you have this innocent child to take care of, it clears the bullshit really quickly. For Waverly and Nicole, having that baby and taking her to that helicopter, I thought it was a really great metaphor for the fact that nothing else really matters besides family.” Continue reading.

From Dalene Rovenstine of Entertainment Weekly:

Wynonna Earp EP walks us through the heartbreaking finale — and that surprise ending
“When I look at Rosita and Wynonna, I see two characters who are more alike than they are different. Rosita has done everything she can to keep going and she’s tried to better herself and fight on. In the end she made a terrible, terrible choice.” Continue reading.

Link: Wynonna Earp: Emily Andras talks “I Hope You Dance”
“In typical Wynonna fashion, everything seems to be mixed up in the order you’re traditionally supposed to do something. It’s weird to have a baby with someone, who you really care about and could be your soulmate, but now you’ve had a baby so are you just going to go back to dating and flirting? Meanwhile, there’s this other guy on the sideline, maybe a sexy lizard/dragon, we’ve all been there. I don’t know. I don’t know if they are going to have the same reaction to having given the baby up.” Continue reading.

“Going into Season 3 it makes everything so much more important. At the end of the day there’s this tiny, helpless creature out there and it’s in the back of all our minds now. Everything becomes more important.” Continue reading.

“This finale and this season is everything that Wynonna is about. It’s really cool and really exciting that Emily managed to set that bar right on up. I’m sure she will continue to do so. Every time I’m like ‘of course you managed to do that, Em because you’re a genius!’” Continue reading. 

From Kat Jetson of The Hollywood Reporter:

“Like all the best journeys, you should be open to taking a side road if it looks like it’s gonna be fun. You have to be willing to change your mind a little, and if something better presents itself, by all means pursue it. But I definitely have a very clear idea of how I could achieve that … in season 22.” Continue reading.

“It’s not a secret to say that this seems to be the demon who cast the Earp curse, so that’s why he’s going to be such a challenging one to put down. It’s interesting that Momma Michelle has filled Wynonna’s head in the past with ideas about Bulshar, so we’ll have to find out what they are.” Continue reading.
