Following the success of the recently returned Breaking Amish installment, TLC has announced plans to produce a third season of the show, which will feature an all-new cast.

Kate Struggles With Isolation Despite Succesful Modeling Career?

The current installment, Return to Amish, is the third to feature the original cast -- Ab Schmucker, Rebecca Byler, Kate Stoltzfus, Sabrina High and Jeremiah Raber, but this will be the second installment of the show to feature a new cast of characters.

According to Zap2it, the new cast will feature: Miriam, a 26-year-old from Ohio who is currently being shunned because of continued disobedience to her Amish community; Vonda, a 29-year-old from Indiana who was baptized and risks losing everything if she chooses to leave the community; Barbie, a 22-year-old from Kentucky who wants to experience the English life despite her parents pressuring her to settle down; Bates, a 21-year-old with dreams of becoming an actor and Matthias, a 21-year-old who was adopted by Amish parents, but never officially joined the church.

This cast is set to find themselves facing similar struggles that the original cast did, but in Brooklyn, N.Y. instead of Manhattan. They too will be forced to struggle with the ultimate decision of whether or not they will leave their families behind for good.

This is not the first time TLC will be producing a Breaking Amish season with a new cast. After the success of the first season, they followed a new cast including Iva Troyer, Betsey Yoder, Devon Miller, Lizzie Stoltzfus, Sam Stoltzfus, Matt Bristol and original cast member Abe Schmucker's brother, Andrew. That cast went to Los Angeles.

The new show is set to premiere in October 2014. Return to Amish airs Sundays at 9 p.m. TLC.
