Emma Thompson and Ruth Wilson will return for season two of Apple TV’s Down Cemetery Road. The streamer announced the critically acclaimed thriller has been renewed for a second season.
The renewal announcement included a description of what viewers can expect in the upcoming season: “Season two reunites Zoë Boehm (Thompson) and Sarah Trafford (Wilson) chasing down another twisted mystery. After a woman falls in front of a train, Zoë is called in to investigate, but this seemingly simple case soon upends her life as she and Sarah find themselves navigating the glamorous but ruthless world of black market antiquities. Matters take a deadly turn when they stumble into the path of a brutal serial killer who will stop at nothing to cover up his crimes.”
The series is based on Mick Herron’s bestselling “Zoë Boehm” book series. Morwenna Banks writes and executive produces, with author Herron involved as an executive producer. Additional executive producers include Emma Thompson, Jamie Laurenson, Hakan Kousetta, and Tom Nash. Down Cemetery Road is produced by 60Forty Films.
“I’m so thrilled that Down Cemetery Road has been enjoyed enough to warrant a second season. The thought of working with the team again, with wonderful Morwenna Banks in the writer’s seat and the indomitable Ruth Wilson, who is the best and most brilliant co-star any aging Dame could desire, is frankly far more than I feel I deserve,” stated Emma Thompson. “Zoë Boehm is a punkishly delicious avatar and I can’t wait to pull on her knockoff Doc Martens again. Thanks to everyone who watched! We are go for the next one and it’s all down to you.”
Börkur Sigþórssen (Insomnia) will be the lead director for season two.
