Introduction:
Could there be more Hudson & Rex coming our way — but with a twist? Fans of the hit Canadian police procedural might soon have something new to look forward to. Rumors are swirling that a Hudson & Rex spin-off is in early development stages… and it might dive deep into Rex’s backstory.
The Casting Buzz
According to several entertainment insiders, the production team behind Hudson & Rex has quietly begun casting calls for a new series. While nothing is officially confirmed, early reports suggest that this isn’t just another season — it could be a standalone project focused on a younger Rex and his time before joining Detective Charlie Hudson.
Imagine a show that takes us back to Rex’s days in K9 training, or his first missions with a former handler. Not only would this give longtime fans a fresh angle on their favorite dog detective, but it could also open doors to darker, more intense stories that the main series only hints at.
What Might the Spin-Off Cover?
Some fan theories suggest that Rex had a dramatic and emotional past before arriving in St. John’s. We’ve seen glimpses in flashbacks — but never the full picture. Could this new show finally reveal what Rex had to endure? Was he part of a military K9 unit? Did he lose a former partner? Was he involved in a major case that changed his behavior forever?
These are the questions that fans are dying to have answered.
Why a Spin-Off Makes Sense
With Hudson & Rex enjoying international popularity and Diesel vom Burgimwald (the real dog behind Rex) becoming a fan favorite, a spin-off could capitalize on that love. Expanding the Hudson & Rex universe would not only satisfy long-time viewers but also attract new audiences with a slightly different tone — possibly grittier or more emotionally driven.
Still Just a Rumor… For Now
Until we hear an official announcement from Citytv or the producers, we have to take this as speculation. But when casting rumors like these begin to surface, it often means something is brewing behind the scenes.
So keep your eyes peeled, because the next chapter in the Hudson & Rex saga might just be coming sooner than we think.
