The Mysterious Benedict Society cast and crew were all smiles when discussing this season of the show. We will see the characters in an entirely new environment this year as they travel the globe in their latest adventure. We can also expect to see new sets as the cast, who was previously filming in Canada, has relocated to Los Angeles for a new look. We spoke with Mystic Inscho (“Reynie Muldoon”), Marta Kessler (“Constance Contriare"), Seth Carr (“George “Sticky” Washington”), Emmy DeOliveira (“Kate Wetherall”), Gia Sandhu (“Ms. Perumal”), MaameYaa Baofo (“Rhonda Kazembe”), EPs & Creators Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi, and EPs & Showrunners Darren Swimmer and Todd Slavkin. The showrunners said to expect the unexpected as the orphans, who are reminded that they are family, are brought back together to help their friend. Mystic said he was happy to come back to play Reynie and had no trouble getting back into character, while Emmy DeOliveria said this season has some great moments, including some with her "dad," Ryan Hurst. Additionally, all of the EPs and Showrunners said this was a big season to take on, but they could not be more proud. Listen in to hear everyone's take on their latest adventure.

Synopsis:
This season, Reynie, Sticky, Kate, and Constance, the four gifted orphans recruited by the eccentric Mr. Benedict, embark on another mission to save the world from the nefarious plans of his twin brother Dr. L.D. Curtain. When the kids discover that Mr. Benedict and Number Two have been kidnapped, they must piece together the riddles and clues within a perilous scavenger hunt set by Mr. Benedict to foil Curtain’s latest scheme. Relying on only their wits, intellect, and empathy, the charming group of misfits embarks on a globe-trotting adventure by air, land, sea, and pie truck, calling upon their special skills to solve the mysteries and rescue their lost comrades. Along the way, the kids experience the growing pains that come with being part of their new “found family” while remaining true to their unique selves. In the process, they discover what true happiness means.
