It would have been impossible to imagine The Devil's Hour ending for good after the closing moments of the recent season 1 finale, so fans will be delighted to hear that Prime Video has officially renewed the mind-bending sci-fi thriller for two more seasons.
Jessica Raine (Patrick Melrose) and Peter Capaldi (The Suicide Squad) are set to reprise their roles as Gideon and Lucy Chambers, alongside Nikesh Patel (Starstruck), Phil Dunster (Ted Lasso), Meera Syal (Yesterday), and Benjamin Chivers. New cast members will also join the ensemble, but no word on which actors have been enlisted just yet.
The next two instalments of the critically acclaimed Amazon Original will continue the story of Lucy Chambers, a woman caught up in the hunt for serial killer Gideon in ways she never could imagine. In Series Two, Gideon’s true intentions are finally revealed, as he attempts to involve Lucy in his mission to stop an elusive force of evil.
Simultaneously a sequel and a prequel to the first chapter, expect nothing but the unexpected…
“We’re thrilled with the audience response to The Devil’s Hour, and can’t wait to share the next chapter of this mind-bending story,” said Dan Grabiner, head of UK Originals, Amazon Studios. “Fans can look forward to plenty more twists and turns in this remarkable tale from first-time series creator Tom Moran, and welcoming back our immensely talented cast, led by Jessica Raine and Peter Capaldi.”
“Telling a story on television is a precarious business,” added Tom Moran, writer and creator. “Series One of The Devil’s Hour was just the beginning—the opening act of a TV novel. I’m so thrilled that we get to keep turning those pages and slotting the puzzle pieces into place. If you thought the final episode of Series One had all the answers, then you haven’t been asking the right questions.”
