“Tracker” Season 2 Trailer Sees Justin Hartley's Character Getting Distracted on the Job by Possible New Romance (Exclusive)
The CBS series premieres its sophomore installment, which will see Sofia Pernas and Jensen Ackles return, on Oct. 13.
Justin Hartley is enjoying the rewards of his hard work — literally.
PEOPLE has the exclusive trailer for season 2 of CBS'sTracker, which stars Hartley, 47, as Colter Shaw, a rewardist who traverses the country working as part private eye, part survivalist in order to help law enforcement find people in exchange for money.
The trailer teases audiences by showing Colter back on the job as a montage of scenes from the upcoming season flash by, including him sharing a steamy kiss with a possible new love interest. But will this new flame become a distraction to his work?
"I'm making sure you haven't done anything stupid," asks Colter's business handler Velma Bruin (Abby McEnany).
Seemingly being asked again about what he's been up to, Colter says he doesn't "want to talk about it," resulting in tech expert Bobby Exley (Eric Graise) noting how that "sounds sus."
Other scenes in the montage include everything from a car ride with older brother Russell (Jensen Ackles) to a surprise moment featuring the return of fellow bounty hunter Billie Matalon, played by Hartley's wife, Sofia Pernas.
Ackles' return as Colter's brother was confirmed by Hartley himself, who also serves as an executive producer on Tracker, during the Summer Television Critics Association 2024 Press Tour in California in July.
“We got him, he’s coming back,” Hartley said. “We’re having fun with that. It’s a great story.”
Other returning characters include lawyer Reenie Green, played by Fiona Rene.
Though Hartley previously told PEOPLE that he likes “the fact that Colter doesn't have a girlfriend," a possible enemies-to-lovers romance with Billie might be in his character's future based on the trailer.
"Aren't you mister popular," Billie says in the clip while she walks up to a bar where Colter is seated.
The two can then be seen dancing briefly before Rene says in a voice-over, "Notice I didn't ask about you and Billie," to which Colter answers, "Can we just focus on the work?"
Last season, Pernas, 34, guest starred on the show’s sixth episode, titled “Lexington," introducing viewers to her character and the will-they-won't-they dynamic between Billie and Colter.
Colter even asked Billie out to dinner — an idea she, herself, had pitched earlier in the episode — but Billie shockingly declined.

“I think she is terrified of being vulnerable, and I think if she had dinner with him, she would have to address the pink elephant in the room inside of herself and be like, ‘Oh crap, I actually like this guy,’” Pernas previously told PEOPLE of her character’s decision. “I think she is someone who probably doesn't like to address her feelings as readily as she addresses other things.”
Season 2 of Tracker premieres on Oct. 13 on CBS at 8 p.m. EST.
