Amazon Prime Video has renewed its sci-fi western drama “Outer Range” for a second season.
Josh Brolin starred in the first season as Royal Abbott, a rancher who is fighting to protect his family and discovers a mystery at the edge of Wyoming’s wilderness.
The Abbotts are coping with the disappearance of daughter-in-law Rebecca (Kristen Connolly) and are pushed further to the brink when the Tillersons, the gaudy owners of the neighboring profit-driven ranch, make a play for their land.
An untimely death in the community sets off a chain of events that come to a head with the arrival of a mysterious black void in the Abbotts’ west pasture.
Imogen Poots, Lili Taylor, Tamara Podemski, Lewis Pullman, Tom Pelphrey, Noah Reid, Shaun Sipos, Isabel Arraiza, Olive Abercrombie and Will Patton also star.
Charles Murray (“Sons of Anarchy,” “Luke Cage”) is joining the series as showrunner, taking over from Brian Watkins who will continue as executive producer. Brolin, Zev Borow, Heather Rae, Robin Sweet, Tony Krantz, Amy Seimetz, Lawrence Trilling, Dede Gardner, Jeremy Kleiner and Brad Pitt also executive produce.
