ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — The CBS original series “Tracker” follows Justin Hartley as Colter Shaw, a survivalist who driven by the troubles of his past, uses his instincts to find the missing, and collect rewards.
In this next episode, which premieres Sunday at 8 p.m. EST on WROC, Shaw is helped by Reenie Green, played by Fiona Rene. She spoke with News 8’s Gio Battaglia.
News 8’s Gio Battaglia: Take me into this season of “Tracker,” where we are in the season and what’s ahead?
Fiona Rene, “Reenie Green” in “Tracker:” I mean, what a dramatic series. I literally watched last week, and I was like, at the edge of my seat, and I was in the show this season! I feel like it’s been more action, more drama, more light heartedness, I mean, more of everything that we already had in season one, and it’s just been a dream. I’m honestly the luckiest gal in the whole world.
Battaglia: Tell me about what’s coming up in this next episode. We see Colter hired to find a mother in Ohio who went missing after talking her son in for the night. How do you sort of help in this investigation?
Rene: Well, Reenie had to go to Indianapolis for a deposition for one of her “no problem clients,” and while she’s there, she said, ‘Hey, Colter, if you’re in Ohio, you need boots on the ground. Let me know if I can help.’ And of course, he needs a little bit of Reenie’s assistance. So, she finds out that one of the suspects owns a storage unit, and we think maybe there’s something in there that can help with the case. She has to go do some sly work. May get a little troublesome along the way. And, yeah, the story is really, really good, a little tearjerker, but good.
Battaglia: With the tearjerker, you know, your character is very savvy, very fierce. How does that add to… Is it kind of a yin and yang with Coulter? How does that kind of play in?
Rene: I think we bring out the best sides of each other, and maybe some of not the not best. Coulter’s always very determined, very serious, and he gets the job done. Reenie does the same thing, but she’s got a bit more fire and sass underneath her, and I think she brings that out in him, and he kind of keeps her grounded.
Battaglia: Looking outside of the work that you do in the investigation, you also have a little bit of a love interest this season, which is exciting with Elliot. Tell me a little bit about that and how we can expect to see that progress or change throughout the rest of the season.
Rene: I would love to know. When I find out, I’ll let you know. In general, Elliot, played by Michael Rady. He’s such a joy. Elliot is like a rock. I mean, he doesn’t falter, and he’s so emotionally available. And I think high powered businesswomen, she needs some of that emotional sensitivity to open up at the end of the day. And he really, he’s really provided that.
