Paramount+, CBC, and Piazza Entertainment today announced that production has begun on the second season of the medical drama series Skymed. Filming in Ontario and Manitoba, the young medics and pilots flying air ambulances return for more life, death and drama in the skies of remote Northern Canada.

The original series will be available in Canada on CBC TV and CBC Gem, and streaming exclusively on Paramount+ in the U.S. and internationally in the UK, Australia, Latin America, Brazil, Italy, France, and Germany.

The series is created by Julie Puckrin and inspired by her sister and brother-in-law who met flying air ambulances. Returning to Skymed is Natasha Calis as ‘Nurse Hayley Roberts,’ Aason (Ace) Nadjiwon as Golden boy pilot ‘Captain Austen Bodie,’ Morgan Holmstrom as no-nonsense ‘Nurse Crystal Highway,’ Praneet Akilla as ‘First Officer Chopper,’ Thomas Elms as icy-cool pilot ‘Captain Nowak,’ Mercedes Morris as ‘First Officer Lexi Martine,’ and Kheon Clarke as ‘Nurse Tristan Green’. Braeden Clarke reprises his recurring role as Crystal’s charming on-again-off-again love interest, ‘Jeremy Wood,’ and Aaron Ashmore returns as ‘Wheezer,’ the wise-cracking big brother that everyone looks up to.

Cast joining the second season includes Sydney Kuhne (Ginny & Georgia) as fiery new flight medic ‘Stef,’ Ryan Ali (The Hummingbird Project) as young pilot ‘Reese,’ and Nadine Whiteman-Roden (Faith Heist) as Dr. Yana Noah.

Season one is available to stream on Paramount+ and CBC Gem.
