Hawthorne Season 2 Premiers tonight on TNT 9/8c

Jada Pinkett Smith returns this summer for a second season as Christina Hawthorne, an impassioned Chief Nursing Officer, in TNT’s medical drama. This year, Christina will undergo some of the biggest challenges of her career as she faces the possibility of the doors of Richmond Trinity closing permanently. Joining Pinkett Smith in HAWTHORNE is Michael Vartan (Alias) as Dr. Tom Wakefield, the oncologist who treated Christina’s husband and who serves as director of medicine for the hospital. The cast also includes Suleka Mathew (Men in Trees) as Bobbie Jackson, the head ER nurse and one of Hawthorne’s best friends; David Julian Hirsh (Lovebites) as Ray Stein, a nurse struggling with being accepted in a female-dominated profession; Christina Moore (90210) as Candy Sullivan, a nurse with a strong sense of duty; and Hannah Hodson (TNT’s The Ron Clark Story) as Camille, Hawthorne’s daughter.
