Bates Motel fans still have a long way to go until Season 2 debuts on A&E sometime next year. Earlier today, the network released the first piece of promo art on the show's official Twitter page, although, sadly, it doesn't feature stars Vera Farmiga, Freddie Highmore or any other cast members. Take a look at the poster, then read on for more information regarding this upcoming season.

We reported in April that A&E issued a 10-episode order for Season 2 of Bates Motel. Since Season 1, debuted this past March, it seems likely that Season 2 will arrive in March 2014. We reported in July that Michael Vartan has signed on for the recurring role of George, a potential love interest for Vera Farmiga's Norma Bates.
