Author Ian Rankin said: "There's a real sense of excitement about stepping back into Rebus' world.
"We were incredibly fortunate with the team we assembled for the first series, and it's a genuine pleasure to be returning alongside so many familiar faces, both in front of and behind the camera.
"At the same time, we're welcoming some fantastic new talent this season, and it's already exciting to see the energy, ideas and depth they're bringing to the story."
The returning cast also includes Brian Ferguson, Lucie Shorthouse, Amy Manson and Stuart Bowman.
Written by Gregory Burke, the second series delves deeper into the character’s conflicted personal life and professional challenges, exploring connections between violent crime and the worlds of law and finance.
Richard Rankin said: "What I've always loved about Rebus is that he's such a richly complex character.
"He's fiercely driven, deeply flawed, endlessly determined and often at war with himself.
"Returning to him, there's still so much to discover, with many, many layers of the character left to explore.
"This next chapter promises to challenge him in ways that I'm really looking forward to bringing to life."
Richard Rankin is the narrator at this year's Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo. The Herald went to the opening night, where our reporter said, "It's breathtaking entertainment and undeniably beautiful to watch. But if looked at as a celebration of every nation's culture, I don't know if it quite hits that mark."
The Herald understands that the main star, Rankin, is not on set this week.
Season two of Rebus promises six 60-minute episodes. It is produced by Eleventh Hour Films for BBC iPlayer, BBC Scotland and BBC One, commissioned by Lindsay Salt, Director of BBC Drama and Louise Thornton, Head of Commissioning for BBC Scotland.
