The Man In The High Castle Season 2 Announced

The drama produced by Ridley Scott, is set in an alternate 1962 where the Axis powers won World War II. A San Francisco woman (Alexa Davalos) comes into possession of a film reel depicting a world where the Allied powers were victorious, which inspires some very dangerous ideas. Luke Kleintank and Rufus Sewell also star. You can watch a previously released trailer for the first season below:

While I’ve only watched the first two episodes of the series thus far (I’ve been kind of busy with Star Wars, life and other things to binge watch TV shows as of late), I very much enjoyed the alternate history reality and Lost-like feel of this show.

I’m glad to hear its coming back for a second season because I know mystery box shows haven’t been as popular in recent years, which is a shame. Damon Lindelof’s The Leftovers seems to be having a resurgence in its second season on HBO. But another mystery box series, Wayward Pines, was originally set to be a one-season, “one and done” story, and was also recently renewed, so maybe things are turning around for such shows.
