About the show:
From the producers of "Orphan Black" (Temple Street Productions) and Michelle Lovretta, the creator of "Lost Girl," "Killjoys" follows a trio of interplanetary BOUNTY HUNTERS -- or Killjoys -- as they chase deadly Warrants (fugitives) throughout the Quad, a distant planetary system on the brink of a bloody class war.
Hannah John-Kamen stars as the gorgeous, complicated and deadly Dutch. A top-level Killjoy, she's a much-loved and charming presence in her community, with a unique gift for earning people's trust and respect regardless of their class. Under her banter and self-protective flirtations, there is pain, maturity, and a deep solemnity resulting from a dark, secret past.
Aaron Ashmore takes on the role of John Jaqobis, a Level 3 Killjoy who, despite his profession, is a peacemaker who hates conflict. Cheerful and kind-hearted, John prefers not to fight, but his sarcastic wit has put him into the fray enough over the years to teach him how to do it well -- and dirty. Give this man any machine or situation, and he can fix it, build it, and fly it.
Luke Macfarlane plays D'avin Jaqobis, a handsome, rugged, sarcastic and incredibly loyal former soldier. He dreamed of enlisting in the military since boyhood, and his hard-won expertise in tactics, maneuvers, and hand-to-hand combat make him an instant asset to the Killjoy team.
"Killjoys" is produced by Temple Street Productions ("Orphan Black," "Being Erica") in association with Bell Media and Syfy. Creator and showrunner Lovretta serves as executive producer along with Temple Street Productions' David Fortier and Ivan Schneeberg. Universal Cable Productions distributes the series worldwide.
