Will Justin Hartley and Jensen Ackles be together again soon as the Shaw brothers to shoot the Tracker season 3 finale in Vancouver?
Tracker follows Colter Shaw (Justin Hartley), a lone-wolf survivalist who roams the country as a reward seeker, using his expert tracking skills to help private citizens and law enforcement solve all manner of mysteries while contending with his own fractured family.
Production on the hit series wraps April 21st.
CBS has already released the logline for the season 3 finale airing May 24th.
The Best Ones: Colter (Justin Hartley) and Russell (Jensen Ackles) search for a victim of a nefarious research project.
The brothers last collaborated in the two-part season 3 premiere, investigating an X-Files-style system called The Process — in which people were blackmailed into doing terrible things, modelled by grad students after their professor’s experiments.
The Process took the brothers into a very dark place, similar to the world that their Dad inhabited at university when something caused him to step away and take his family off the grid.
These [government] experiments, possible mental, physical, psychological experiments that bear some really bad fruit. Some of that may also play into some of the larger secrets about Colter’s family — not this particular thing that’s in the season opener, but it’s opening up that world. ,. . . think some of the answers with what happened with [Colter’s] family lie in that world. — showrunner Elwood Reid to TV Insider.
A lot has happened in the Shaw family — Mom (Wendy Crewson), brother Russell (Jensen Ackles), Colter (Justin Hartley) and sister Dory (Melissa Roxburgh) — in three seasons.
When we met Colter in season one of Tracker, he believed that Russell had caused their father Ashton Shaw’s death 20 years before but in the second-to-last episode of that season, Russell convinced him someone else was responsible.
In season 2 episode 2, Russell came to Colter’s rescue on an X-Files-style case and the Shaw brothers found out a bit more about their father’s work as a government contractor and possible involvement in a conspiracy.
Then, at the end of season 2, Colter was stunned to learn his mother Mary (Wendy Crewson) may have been involved in his father’s death, after Colter found and confronted the man Otto (Alex Fernandez), who actually pushed his father off the cliff.
Colter and Russell reunited in the two-part season 3 premiere and will be back together for the season 3 finale.
