\n\tLuna joins fellow new additions Brian Cox<\/a> and Dan Stevens<\/a> on the serial killer side of Resurrection\u2019s season two story. Bokeem Woodbine and Nona Parker Johnson have also been cast in the series along with returnees Michael C. Hall, Jack Alcott, Uma Thurman<\/a> and Krysten Ritter.<\/p>\n
