Blood & Treasure Renewed at CBS

CBS has renewed for a second season Blood & Treasure, a new scripted series that made a successful debut on the network this summer.

The action-adventure drama follows antiquities expert Danny McNamara (Matt Barr) and art thief Lexi Vaziri (Sofia Pernas) as they team up to catch a terrorist who funds his attacks with stolen treasure and travel the globe in pursuit of their target. Blood & Treasure also stars Michael James Shaw, Katia Winter, James Callis, Oded Fehr, Alicia Coppola and Mark Gagliardi. The series is produced by CBS Television Studios in association with Propagate Content.

Amy Reisenbach, executive VP of current programs at CBS Entertainment, said: “Blood & Treasure is a fun, escapist adventure with comedic elements filmed in multiple locales around the world that has been a great performer and a wonderful addition to our summer schedule. We’ve heard the story pitch for season two and look forward to seeing all-new exploits from Russia to Southeast Asia next year.”
