The Justice Warriors are returning with a fresh wave of family drama in tow.
Hallmark Channel’s latest release, True Justice: Eye For An Eye, continues the saga of the True Justice series, following a tight-knit group of friends who are also law students, as they tackle a new case. This time, they revisit their high school days to clear the name of Sharon Warner, the President of Penn Charter’s Parent School Coalition. She stands wrongfully accused of vehicular homicide involving a fellow coalition member.
Back in February 2025, Deadline announced the start of production for two sequels to the 2024 film, True Justice: Family Ties. The third installment in the series is tentatively titled True Justice: Lost Love, as reported by the outlet.
Fans of True Justice: Family Ties will be pleased to see familiar faces reprising their roles in this new installment. True Justice: Eye For An Eye debuts tonight at 8/7c on Hallmark Channel, with streaming available on Hallmark+ the following day.

Another case brought to her and the gang by Liam (see below) piques her interest in True Justice: Eye For An Eye. Hallmark Channel describes Casey as “passionate and resourceful.”
As mentioned above, McNamara is reprising her role as Casey from True Justice: Family Ties. She is known for her work on Shadowhunters, Arrow, and Walker: Independence, in addition to films like 2015’s Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials and 2018’s Maze Runner: The Death Cure.

They were initially adversaries in True Justice: Family Ties, as he believed her brother murdered his girlfriend. The network describes Eli as “bold and decisive.”
Tarasiuk is another returning cast member from True Justice: Family Ties. Other Hallmark movies of his include A Homecoming for the Holidays (2019), Christmas at the Golden Dragon (2022), and Nelly Knows Mysteries: All Manners of Murder (2024).
