CBS summer drama Extant kicks off its second season tonight at 10 p.m. ET/PT. Jeffrey Dean Morgan joins the cast as JD Richter, a cop and bounty hunter who thrives on solving the unsolvable.

In the Season 2 premiere, "Change Scenario," six months after her life unraveled and dark secrets were revealed, Molly (Halle Berry) is confined to a psychiatric hospital when she learns of bizarre deaths that sound eerily similar to those she witnessed in space. When she escapes to investigate, she crosses paths with JD Richter, a determined cop who just signed on to the case.

Watch a sneak peek below:





Extant stars Halle Berry as Molly Woods, Jeffrey Dean Morgan as JD Richter, Pierce Gagnon as Ethan Woods and Grace Gummer as Julie Gelineau.

Guest starring are Goran Visnjic as John Woods and Tyler Hilton as Charlie. Days of our Lives star Greg Vaughan (Eric Brady) will so be making an appearance.
