It has been announced that two main characters will die in the season 2 premiere of the breakout CBS hit drama, and they weren't kidding around. A new report by TVGuide.com lists eight potential characters who could be knocking on death's door, two of which will definitely be goners.

Three Main Characters Jailed After Murdering Others In Season 2?

It seems unlikely that Big Jim or Barbie will be kicking the bucket considering their importance on the show, but either one of their deaths could set the show in a new, intriguing direction.

CBS recently released a promo for season 2, with the residents of Chester's Mill being thrown around randomly, likely caused by the dome.

Junior (Alexander Koch) makes the observation, "I think the dome is trying to tell us something." Kneeling on the ground, Big Jim looks up at the dome at screams out, "Tell me what to do. Tell me!" It appears that he is holding onto Junior, who has collapsed as well. Could this really be the end of Junior?

Under the Dome season 2 premieres Monday, June 30 at 10 p.m. on CBS.
