Harrow – Series 2
The Queensland Government will partner once again with Disney-owned ABC Studios International and broadcaster ABC Australia on the second series, supporting Hoodlum via their Production Attraction Fund.
The Queensland Government’s investment in ten new episodes of Harrow will deliver further jobs, training and upskilling opportunities for Queenslanders, as well as broader economic benefits for the entire state.
The second season of Harrow goes into production soon in Brisbane.
Harrow is produced in partnership with Hoodlum Entertainment, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) and Screen Queensland. The series is created by Stephen M. Irwin & Leigh McGrath, written by Stephen M. Irwin, and its executive producers are Tracey Robertson and Nathan Mayfield.
Harrow is the story of forensic pathologist Dr. Daniel Harrow, played by Ioan Gruffudd. Harrow’s total disregard for authority and his unfailing empathy for the dead help him solve even the most bizarre cases. He is driven to give victims a voice and will bend every rule to get to the truth of what happened to them. But when a terrible secret from his own past threatens his family, his career, and himself, Harrow needs all his wit, wile and forensic genius not to solve a crime, but to keep it buried.
