Production is currently underway on the second season of “Criminal Minds: Evolution”, which is a continuation of the popular “Criminal Minds” series about an FBI profiling team whose job is to catch criminals.

Original cast members continuing their roles include Joe Mantegna, A.J. Cook, Kirsten Vangsness, Aisha Tyler, Adam Rodriguez and Paget Brewster. Zach Gilford joined the dynamic cast this season as a recurring guest star in a season-long arc.

It has also been revealed that Felicity Huffman is going to be making a guest star appearance in the upcoming series, where she plays “Dr. Jill Gideon, a brilliant biological psychiatrist, who agrees to help the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit investigate a murderous conspiracy theory. Jill is reluctant to return to the bureau’s elite team given her complicated history with David Rossi (Joe Mantegna) and her dead ex-husband, Jason Gideon (who was played by Mandy Patinkin in the original series), but soon realizes her specific skill set could help them uncover another clue to the elusive Gold Star mystery.”

With the description of the character, it’s possible that the character could make more than one appearance, due to the connection with other characters within the franchise.

Felicity Huffman has previously starred in “Desperate Housewives” and was recently going to star in ABC’s “The Good Doctor” spinoff about a Lawyer, which was passed on. 

“Criminal Minds: Evolution” is produced by Disney’s ABC Signature and CBS Studios. Erica Messer (“Criminal Minds,” “Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders”) serves as showrunner and executive producer, with Breen Frazier, Chris Barbour, Glenn Kershaw and Mark Gordon also executive producing.

The first season of “Criminal Minds: Evolution” is available to stream on Paramount+ in the United States and is also released exclusively on Disney+ in many countries, including the United Kingdom and Australia. The previous seasons are also available to stream now on Hulu and Hulu On Disney+ in the United States and on Disney+ in many countries around the world.
