AceShowbiz - High Potential has announced a major change behind the scenes as the ABC drama prepares for its third season. Following the exit of Todd Harthan, the show has appointed Nora and Lilla Zuckerman as the new executive producers and showrunners, according to Deadline.

Nora and Lilla Zuckerman are no strangers to showrunning. They previously led the first season of Peacock's Poker Face and most recently wrote and executive-produced the pilot for Hulu’s Buffy: New Sunnydale, although that project was not picked up for a full series. Their appointment marks a fresh creative direction for High Potential as it moves forward.

Todd Harthan’s departure was revealed alongside the renewal news for Season 3. He is stepping away to concentrate on developing a new series for Disney+ inspired by the popular dragon-themed Eragon book series. This shift leaves the reins of High Potential firmly in the hands of the Zuckerman sisters.

The show recently wrapped its second season on April 7, leaving audiences with several unresolved cliffhangers. Questions remain about who attacked Wagner in the park and the true intentions behind Roman’s presence at Ava’s art show. Notably, Steve Howey, who portrayed Wagner, will not return as a series regular but may appear briefly to conclude his storyline.

Fans and critics alike are keen to see how the new showrunners will steer High Potential through its next chapter. The creative transition promises new energy and perspective for the series as it tackles existing mysteries and develops fresh storylines. Viewers are encouraged to share their thoughts and expectations for Season 3 in the comments below.
