Sky Releases First-Look Images & Info About ‘Tin Star’ Season 2
Sky has released a couple of “first look” images and some additional info about the upcoming 2nd Season of ‘Tin Star‘, which sees Tim Roth return as the now ex-Police Chief, Jim Worth.
Season 1 of the drama followed police chief Jim Worth (Roth) who moves to peace and quiet of the remote Rocky Mountains with his beloved wife and children, as he finally feels he has found the life he was searching for. However, the tranquillity is short-lived as the arrival of huge numbers of workers from a new oil refinery leads to a wave of drugs, prostitution, organised crime, and a murder, which hits Jim hard. His obsessive quest to find the truth behind this mysterious killing drives a revelatory story about love, corruption, grief and the all-consuming nature of revenge.
