Sky has released a trailer for Season 2 of Joe Barton’s utterly brilliant and time-bending action drama ‘The Lazarus Project‘ which returns to Sky Max and streaming service NOW in November.
Season one of ‘The Lazarus Project’ introduced us to George (Paapa Essiedu – ‘Gangs of London’) who woke up one day and found himself reliving a day from months ago. All of his recent milestones had been undone, including his success at work and his marriage to the love of his life Sarah (Charly Clive – ‘Pure’). Worst of all, he seemed to be the only one who’d noticed what had happened… That was until he met Archie (Anjli Mohindra – ‘Vigil’, ‘Bodyguard’), who recruited George for the Lazarus Project – a secret organisation that has harnessed the ability to turn back time every time the world is at threat of extinction.
As we return for season two, the world is locked into a never-ending time loop that will ultimately end with the planet’s complete extinction. The Lazarus team must race against time to find a solution before humanity is wiped out forever.
After the events of season one, Lazarus agent George has been left in disgrace after betraying the organisation in the name of love. He is determined to redeem himself and win back the trust of his friends, colleagues, and the love of his life. But when he discovers that the cause he’s fighting is more sinister than it appears, George begins to suspect that the only person he can really trust is himself.
The epic, action-packed second series is, once again, led by Emmy and BAFTA-nominated Pappa Essiedu (I May Destroy You), with Anjli Mohindra (Bodyguard), Charly Clive (Pure), Vinette Robinson (Boiling Point), Rudi Dharmalingam (Wakefield), Caroline Quentin and Tom Burke (Strike) all reprising their roles.
Also joining the cast in the upcoming second series are Royce Pierreson (The Irregulars, The Witcher), Colin Salmon (Resident Evil, Limitless), Safia Oakley-Green (Sherwood), Lorne MacFayden (Vigil), Zoe Telford (Genius), Sam Troughton and James Atherton (Hollyoaks).
‘The Lazarus Project’ is produced by the award-winning team at Urban Myth Films, in association with Sky Studios, and has been created and written by BAFTA-nominated Joe Barton (Giri / Haji). Season one launched to critical acclaim in June 2022 going on to be Sky Max’s second biggest new scripted launch of the last two years, with a 28-day audience of 1.70m.
‘The Lazarus Project‘ Season 2 does not yet have an exact UK premiere date but will air in November 2023 on Sky Max and streaming service NOW. If you want to keep track of this or any other shows, you can add them via our Never Miss system, and you’ll be notified when they get a UK premiere date.
