![]() Prime Video has yet to announce what their exact roles are, but it looks like they'll be shaking things up. The new season is adding two characters, played by Elsie Fisher and Kyra Sedgwick. The second season will loosely adapt the second novel in the series of the same name by author Jenny Han, titled "It's Not Summer Without You." And while we don't know how exactly the show will adapt that story for the small screen, we do know some crucial information about the show's cast. Most of the main cast are back for the new episodes, including Lola Tung as leading lady Belly, Gavin Casalegno as the bubbly Jeremiah, and Christopher Briney as the moody Conrad.

Scientists participating in the film include Carl Safina, a New York Times bestselling author and nationally recognized wildlife ecologist as well as local botanists Steve Pettis and Dave Coyle, who discuss the importance of learning from native wisdom and how it is an important way to reconnect ourselves to the living world. Instead of nature being our conquest, it becomes our partner.” By looking at the living world that way, it transforms us and how we view the living world. "But native people instead believe that since humans were the last to come and have the least experience on how to live, they must turn to plants and animals as their teachers. “In the western tradition, humans are considered to be at the top of the hierarchy, with animals and plants far below," he said. ![]() Weintraub elaborates that what struck him most of all while working with the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians and half a dozen other native tribes is their sophisticated approach in seeing the connections between history, culture and nature. “We were trying to stay connected to the natural world because we realized that everything that was connected to it thrived, so we understood that if we would stay connected to it, we would be prosperous as well,” said Cherokee elder, storyteller and mask-maker Davy Arch, one of several native elders featured in the film discussing how for more than 10,000 years storytelling connected the tribe to nature and to one another, the use of medicinal plants and how the native approach that focuses on finding connections can help all of us heal our broken relationship with the living world. ![]()
