Two Syfy channel stories in a row? Must be my lucky day!

Syfy’s original series “Haven”, which is based on Stephen King’s “The Colorado Kid”, is casting up. So far, we knew that Emily Rose is starring as FBI agent Audrey Parker, who arrives in the small town of Haven, Maine only to discover that this curious enclave has served as a longtime refuge for people who are afflicted with a remarkable range of supernatural abilities.

According to a press release recently sent out, actors Lucas Bryant (“M.V.P”) and Eric Balfour (“Six Feet Under”; pictured)) have now joined the show, which is expected to commence production in Halifax, Nova Scotia, soon.

Bryant will play Nathan Wuornos, the wry local cop who soon becomes Audrey’s partner. Bristling under the thumb of his father, the Chief of Police, Nathan has a quiet, controlled demeanor that often clashes with Audrey’s feisty one: a dichotomy that also makes them perfect complements. As events in the town begin to unfold at a surprising pace, Nathan’s usual controlled sense of calm is put to the test.

Balfour will play Duke Crocker, a charming yet mysterious jack-of-all-trades. Though Duke outwardly appears to be a free spirit who lives an unobtrusive life on his boat, it becomes apparent that his mellow demeanor may conceal a much darker agenda.

Sounds like it could be a darker spin on Syfy’s “Eureka”. No premiere date has been announced, but it should be sometime next year.
