‘The Peripheral’: Prime Video Renews William Gibson Adaptation For Season 2
UPDATE: Sadly, due to the various strikes in 2023, Prime Video reversed this decision and ‘The Peripheral’ is now cancelled.
Prime Video’s adaptation of William Gibson’s ‘The Peripheral‘ by Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan’s Kilter Films will return for Season 2.
‘The Peripheral’ centres on Flynne Fisher (Chloë Grace Moretz), a woman trying to hold together the pieces of her broken family in a forgotten corner of tomorrow’s America. Flynne is smart, ambitious, and doomed. She has no future; until the future comes calling for her. ‘The Peripheral’ is master storyteller William Gibson’s dazzling, hallucinatory glimpse into the fate of mankind – and what lies beyond.
“We are thrilled to continue the journey into Season Two and delve deeper into the incredible world that Gibson created,” said Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan, Kilter Films. “On behalf of Scott Smith, Vincenzo Natali, and the entire team, we’re grateful to our partners at Amazon and, most of all, to the fans.”
Season one of the series starred Chloë Grace Moretz (‘The Miseducation of Cameron Post’), Jack Reynor (‘Midsommar’), Gary Carr (‘The Deuce’), Eli Goree (‘One Night in Miami…’), Louis Herthum (‘Westworld’), JJ Feild (‘TURN: Washington’s Spies’), T’Nia Miller (‘The Haunting of Bly Manor’), Charlotte Riley (‘Peaky Blinders’), Alexandra Billings (‘The Conners’), Adelind Horan (‘The Deuce’), Alex Hernandez (‘UnREAL’), Katie Leung (‘Chimerica’), Julian Moore-Cook (‘Peaky Blinders’), Melinda Page Hamilton (‘Messiah’), Chris Coy (‘The Deuce’), and Austin Rising (‘Alt’).
“William’s mind-bending story in partnership with the brilliant minds of Scott and Jonathan and Lisa, produced an unforgettable journey for our global audience and we are thrilled with how they embraced the series,” adds Vernon Sanders, head of global television at Amazon Studios. “We look forward to extending our partnership with Warner Bros. and Kilter Films as this uniquely ambitious series continues to unfold.”
‘The Peripheral’ is produced by Amazon Studios and Warner Bros Television, in association with Kilter Films. Executive producers are creator and showrunner Scott B. Smith (‘A Simple Plan’), director Vincenzo Natali (‘In the Tall Grass’), Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy (‘Westworld’), Athena Wickham (‘Westworld’), and Steven Hoban (‘In the Tall Grass’).
‘The Peripheral‘ Season 1 is available on Prime Video UK and worldwide now. If you want to keep track of this or any other show, you can add them via our Never Miss system, and you’ll be notified when they get a UK premiere date.
