Sundance Now and AMC+ released today a couple of first-look images from the second season of Australian mystery-crime drama series Black Snow.
Currently filming in Queensland, Australia, the new season of Black Snow sees Travis Fimmel reprise his role as Detective James Cormack, with Jana McKinnon (Bad Behaviour), Megan Smart (Class of ’07), Alana Mansour (On the Ropes), Dan Spielman (Bad Behaviour, The Newsreader), Victoria Haralabidou (The Tourist), and Kat Stewart (Offspring) joining the cast.
Set in the Glasshouse Mountains, the six-part Season 2 finds Detective Cormack tackling two separate missing persons cases: one professional, one personal. For the former, he investigates the disappearance of Zoe Jacobs (McKinnon), who disappeared from her own 21st birthday party back in 2003. For the latter, Cormack searches desperately for his own younger brother, who went missing when they were children.
Said Travis Fimmel:
“I think Australian film and television has never been stronger. Now, with the addition of streaming networks and their reach, I’m so proud that our local productions and their hard work can be recognised not only here, but around the world. I’m excited to be a part of another season of Black Snow and showing off what Australians have to offer. That, and I’m happy to have free food and a job.”
After a critically-acclaimed first season, director Sian Davies (The Gloaming), executive producer Rosemary Blight (The Invisible Man), and series creator Lucas Taylor (Harrow) return to the series, with Helena Brooks (Population 11) joining as director. Season one lead actor Talijah Blackman-Corowa joins the second season as director’s attachment.
Season 1 of Black Snow was nominated for Most Outstanding Drama Series at the 2023 Logie Awards and received two nominations at the 2024 AACTA Awards: for Best Drama Series and for Best Lead Actor in a Drama for Travis Fimmel. In addition, with sales to all major international territories, the series won the Screen Business Export Award at the recent Australian Screen Producer Awards.
A production of Goalpost Television, Black Snow: Season 2, a Sundance Now Original Series, is produced in association with Stan and All3Media International, with financial support from Screen Queensland, Screen NSW, and City of Gold Coast. Cailah Scobie and Amanda Duthie are executive producers for Stan.
Stay tuned for updates.
