Raising Dion Season 2 Which Cast Members are Returning?
Raising Dion’s main cast from Season 1 will return for Season 2. Including Wainwright as Nicole, Young as Dion, Ritter as Pat, Sammi Haney as Esperanza, and Jazmyn Simon as Kat. Additionally, Ali Ahn (who portrays Suzanne Wu), Gavin Munn (who represents Jonathan King), and Griffin Robert Faulkner (who portrays Brendan Mills) are also becoming regulars from guest stars.
The absence of Michael B. Jordan, who appeared several times throughout Season 1 in flashbacks, is notable, as he reappeared at the end of Season 1 as Nicole’s late husband, Mark. However, as an executive producer, Jordan remains involved with the series, so there is still a possibility that he will appear on the screen.
