High Potential Season 2 bags Shameless star Steve Howey as series regular

ABC's popular crime drama series High Potential Season 2, starring Kaitlin Olson, has added a Shameless star as a series regular to its cast. And it's none other than Steve Howey. Deadline reported that the 47-year-old actor, Steve Howey, is set to play Jesse Wagner, the brand new captain of the precinct.

As per Deadline's character guide, Wagner isn't your typical precinct captain-he's slick, strategic, and always dressed as if he's ready to attend a donor gala. Captain Wagner is a calculated disruptor with an eye for unorthodox talent, which makes his arrival a direct challenge for our favourite LAPD consultant, Morgan. The question isn't whether he'll stir things up; it's how far he'll go to stay in control of the game.

Based on a French series, HPI, High Potential, follows the life of Morgan, a single mom with a messy life and a mind made for murder-solving. When the officers realize Morgan's talent, she is recruited as a LAPD consultant. With her impeccable observation skills, Morgan solves several crimes from family murders to high-profile cases with ease.

So if you are into light crime shows which have heart, humour, and genuineness, High Potential is a perfect pick for you.
