As part of Comic-Con at Home’s virtual events, AMC hosted Saturday panel to talk about the second season of NOS4A2. Episode 6 of NOS4A2’s sophomore season, produced with AMC Studios and Tornante Television, premiered Sunday, July 26 at 10 p.m. ET/9c on AMC and BBC America, according to the AMC television schedule.
The series is based on Joe Hill’s best-selling novel under the same name. The series premise, via IMDB, is “Charlie Manx, a seductive immortal who feeds off the souls of children, has his whole world threatened when a young woman in New England discovers she has a dangerous gift.” Hill also serves as an executive producer alongside showrunner Jami O’Brien (Hell on Wheels). The newest trailer for the series can be seen below:
The horror drama picks up eight years after the events from season one. Season two will highlight Vic McQueen, played by Ashleigh Cummings (Puberty Blues), in her battle to destroy Charlie Manx, played by Zachary Quinto (Star Trek). Manx also has a revenge plot against McQueen’s son Wayne, played by Jason David (Grey’s Anatomy). In order to protect Wayne’s soul, McQueen and Manx will have to face their past to protect Wayne’s future. AMC also released a blog post summarizing key points of the panel and what viewers can expect from NOS4A2’s second season.
The second season will feature Quinto, Cummings and David along with Jahkara Smith (Pure), Olafur Darri Olafsson (Trapped), Ebon Moss-Bachrach (The Punisher), Virginia Kull (Gracepoint), Jonathan Langdon (Killer High), Ashley Romans (Shameless) and Mattea Conforti (The Super).
