Exclusive: Monica Raymund & exec producer Rebecca Cutter talk Hightown Season 3
Premiering Jan. 26 on Starz is the the third and final season of “Hightown.” The crime drama centers around the opioid crisis in picturesque Cape Cod. The time has come for Jackie Quiñones (Monica Raymund) to pick a side and stand up for what she believes in. All lies come to an end and the case is coming to a close.
Monica Raymund, James Badge Dale, Riley Voelkel, Amaury Nolasco, Atkins Estimond and Dohn Norwood return in their previous roles. Imani Lewis, Mark Boone Junior and Mike Pniewski return in recurring roles while Ana Nogueira, Taja V. Simpson, Michael Drayer, Garret Dillahunt, Jeanine Serralles and Kate Miller all guest star.
“Hightown” is created and executive produced by Rebecca Cutter executive producing with Jerry Bruckheimer, Jonathan Littman, KristieAnne Reed from Jerry Bruckheimer Television; Ellen H. Schwartz, Gary Lennon and Tim Walsh also serve as executive producers.
Fishery Service Agent Jackie Quiñones is off the wagon and off the force in the final season of “Hightown,” but that doesn’t stop her from careening into the dark underbelly of picture-perfect Cape Cod to save a missing woman and a murdered sex worker. Meanwhile, her former colleagues Ray Abruzzo and Alan Santille are focused on taking down drug syndicates, but despite their best efforts, the drugs keep flowing. This attracts Shane Frawley, a gangster from Boston looking to cut himself in on the Cape's drug trade - and making an enemy of Osito while he's at it. Alliances are made and old loyalties are questioned in this beautiful but corrupt place where nothing is as it seems.
