Former Teen Wolf star Tyler Hoechlin, Shameless alum Justin Chatwin, Samuel Anderson (Loaded) and Elizabeth Faith Ludlow (The Walking Dead) have been cast opposite Katee Sackhoff in Another Life, Netflix’s sci-fi drama series, from Alias Grace producer Halfire Entertainment.

Created by Aaron Martin (Slasher, Saving Hope, DeGrassi: The Next Generation), who also serves as showrunner, Another Life centers on astronaut Niko Breckinridge (Sackhoff) who is focused on searching for alien intelligence. She leads a crew on a mission to explore the genesis of an alien artifact. As Niko and her young crew investigate, they face unimaginable danger on what might very well be a one-way mission.

Hoechlin plays Ian Yerxa, the former commander of The Salvare space explorations ship, who loses the post to Niko (Sackhoff).

Chatwin portrays Erik Wallace,’ part of the United States Interstellar Command, dedicated to finding intelligent life out in the universe and husband of Commander Niko Breckenridge (Sackhoff).

Anderson is William, a holographic interface of a sentient A.I. Neither a futuristic Tin Man, nor a robot who pines to be human, William is a new form of life with the knowledge of all humanity at his disposal.

Ludlow will play Cas Isakovic, Niko’s (Sackhoff) second-in-command and staunchest ally, filled with courage and moral conviction.

Selma Blair also recurs in the series.

Noreen Halpern executive produces for Halfire Entertainment.

Hoechlin, who starred as Derek Hale on Teen Wolf, plays Superman on the CW’s Supergirl. His feature credits include Bigger and Everybody Wants Some, and he’ll next be seen in Can You Keep A Secret? He’s repped by UTA, Management 360 and Morris Yorn.

Chatwin played Jimmy on seasons 3, 4 and 5 of Showtime’s Shameless. He also recurred as Jason Kellerman on Orphan Black. Chatwin is repped by UTA and Viewpoint.
