Amazon has released a teaser trailer along with a premiere date of Friday 3rd July 2020 for Season 2 of ‘Hanna‘.
In Season 1, 15-year-old Hanna (Esmé Creed-Miles, ‘Mister Lonely’), who was raised in total seclusion in the remote woods of Eastern Europe, has spent her entire young life training to fight those who hunt her and her mercenary father, Erik Heller (Joel Kinnaman, ‘The Killing’). Her survivalist skills are finally tested when she and Erik are separated upon their discovery by a rogue CIA operative, Marissa Wiegler (Mireille Enos, ‘The Killing’) and her team of agents. Hanna has no choice but to embark on a perilous journey alone across Europe as she seeks to reunite with her father and evade and ultimately take down – the dangerous agents who target them. Hanna’s isolated upbringing leads her to face particularly daunting physical and emotional challenges along the way, as she navigates an ever-deepening conspiracy – one that could be the undoing of both her and her father.
Season 2 follows Hanna’s discovery at the end of Season 1 that she now knows she is not the only young woman with unparalleled skill and elite training. The Utrax programme has produced a whole contingent of highly trained teenagers whose development is about to reach the lethal “second phase.” Esmé Creed-Miles reprises the title role of “Hanna” and Mireille Enos returns as CIA operative “Marissa Wiegler” in a season that introduces Dermot Mulroney (‘My Best Friend’s Wedding’) as Utrax overseer “John Carmichael.”
Based on Joe Wright’s acclaimed 2011 film, Hanna’s eight-episode second season was written by David Farr (‘The Night Manager’), who co-wrote the original feature, and Paul Waters, Laura Lomas, Nina Segal and Charlotte Hamblin. The series is produced by Amazon Studios, NBCUniversal International Studios, Tomorrow Studios and Working Title Television. David Farr also serves as director of the penultimate episode and finale, along with series directors Eva Husson and Ugla Hauksdóttir.
‘Hanna‘ Season 2 premieres Friday 3rd July 2020 on Amazon Prime UK and worldwide.
