The third season of “Big Sky” returns to our screens this Fall, and Deadline has revealed some of the cast set to appear in the new season.

In the third season of “Big Sky”, private detective Cassie Dewell (Kylie Bunbury), under sheriff Jenny Hoyt, and newly appointed sheriff Beau Arlen (Jensen Ackles) maintain order in Helena, Montana. But when a local backcountry trip led by charismatic outfitter Sunny Barnes (fka Sunny Brick) (Reba McEntire) goes awry, the trio face their most formidable mystery yet.

Deputy Mo Poppernak, who is played by J. Anthony Pena, has been upped to a series regular for the third season. The character appeared in the majority of the episodes in the second season and is Jenny Hoyt’s chatty, upbeat partner at the Sheriff’s Department

• Seth Gabel portrays Walter, a recluse who lives in a cabin in the Montana wilderness. His unpredictable nature can make for menacing run-ins with stray hikers.

• Anirudh Pisharody plays Luke, a city slicker whose girlfriend Paige dragged him onto Sunny Day Excursions for his birthday.
