Season 3 is expected to feature the return of the main cast of "Home Before Dark." This includes Brooklynn Prince and Jim Sturgess, as well as Abby Miller as Bridget Jensen, Hilde's mom, Kylie Rogers as Hilde's older sister Izzy Lisko, and Jibrail Nantambu and Deric McCabe as Hilde's best friends Donny Davis and Wesley 'Spoon' Witherspoon, respectively. A few other important characters also likely to return in a third season are Frank Briggs Jr. (Michael Weston), Principal Kim Collins (Joelle Carter), and Sheriff Mackenzie "Trip" Johnson (Aziza Scott).
In "Home Before Dark," Hilde's family are huge supporters of her passion for reporting. While her father worked as a reporter himself in New York City, Hilde's sister Izzy is only a few years older than her and pre-occupied with other hobbies, but she still takes the time to help out when she can. In Season 2, Izzy is a little less inclined to work with Hilde as it interrupts her growing social life, but she comes around. As for their mother Bridget, she's initially upset at her husband Matthew because of the secrets he's been keeping from her about his background, but she is also fully supportive of Hilde and her passion for investigating and reporting.
