"KILLJOYS has been a jewel in the Space summer schedule and we are thrilled to deliver two more final seasons of this high-octane adventure series to a devoted audience," Pat DiVittorio, Vice-President, Programming, CTV and Specialty, said. "We have no doubt Lovretta, along with the incredibly talented trio of lead actors, will see this series through to a thrilling end."
"A two season final order is a huge vote of confidence for a show that just keeps getting better and better," David Fortier and Ivan Schneeberg, Co-Presidents of Temple Street and Executive Producers of "KILLJOYS," said. "We are so proud of the reception and support KILLJOYS has had from critics and fans alike and are thrilled to be able to plan a deserving ending for Dutch, D'Av and Johnny. It continues to be an incredible intergalactic journey and we could not have wished for better partners to share the ride."
"This is the kind of privilege every creator hopes for - a chance to plan the end of your tale with confidence, and the luxury of 20 episodes with which to do it right," Michelle Lovretta, Creator and Executive Producer of "KILLJOYS," said. "I'm immensely grateful that both network partners and Temple Street have given our team, cast, and fans this incredible opportunity."Reprising her lead role in the action-packed series, Hannah John-Kamen returns as Dutch, an audacious bounty hunter with a fierce dedication to her Killjoy family, on a quest to solve the mystery of her own identity.

She has also joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe with her upcoming key role in the Ant Man sequel Ant-Man and The Wasp! (2018).
Rounding out the lead cast is Aaron Ashmore as Dutch's loyal long-time partner John Jaqobis, the resident brain, mechanic, and pilot with a vulnerable heart and Luke MacFarlane as D'avin Jaqobis, a born soldier who's tactical skills and loyalty are as strong as his jawline.
