The TNT fantasy series ended its fourth season in 2018, but the network has just announced it has acquired the rights to its upcoming spinoff The Librarians: The Next Chapter .
In a press release issued today, producers revealed that the series will “make a triumphant return to its roots” on the network where it all began.
Producer Dean Devlin said: “Returning to TNT with this series means a lot to us, and we are extremely excited about TNT’s dedication to their fans and providing them with the The sequel to the beloved fantasy series.
“The new series centers on a ‘librarian’ from the past who travels to the present and now finds himself trapped here. When he returns to his castle (now a museum), he inadvertently releases magic,” the press release reads.
“He gets a new team to help him clean up the mess he’s made, assembling a new team of librarians. The new series stars Callum McGowan (“Jamestown”), Jessica Green (“The Outpost”), Olivia Morris (“Hotel Portofino”) and Bluey Robinson (“Britannia”) star in a guest appearance.
“Christian Kane will guest star as ‘Jacob Stone.'”
