Ed Bernero Tapped as Showrunner for Ice

Ed Bernero (Criminal Minds, Crossing Lines) has been brought in to serve as showrunner for the second season of the serialized crime drama Ice.

The AT&T Audience Network original series is set in the underbelly of the Los Angeles diamond trade. Ice builds on AT&T’s relationship with Entertainment One (eOne), which holds the international rights to the series and serves as the studio on Audience Network’s You Me Her and the long-running drama Rogue.

“Ed is an industry veteran who has worked on some of the most popular crime dramas on TV,” said Christopher Long, the head of AT&T Audience Network. “We’re excited to bring him on and look forward to seeing how he drives and develops the storyline that ended with a cliffhanger in season one.”

“We are thrilled with the reception of Ice‘s first season and excited to continue our relationship with Audience Network on this standout series,” added John Morayniss, the CEO of eOne Television. “Bringing on an experienced showrunner like Ed will only heighten the action-packed drama and continue to build the fan base for Ice.”
