STARZ has revealed the all-new Ash vs Evil Dead season 2 trailer, and revealed that despite plans to show it at their San Diego Comic-Con panel, the trailer was banned from the convention for being “too gory.” Check it out in the player below!
Ash vs Evil Dead season 2 is set for another 10 half-hour episodes. The series’ cast includes Lucy Lawless (Salem, Spartacus) as Ruby, who now possesses the powerful Necronomicon; Ray Santiago (Touch, Meet the Fockers) as Pablo Simon Bolivar, Ash’s loyal sidekick dealing with the trauma he suffered in the cabin; and Dana DeLorenzo (A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas) as Kelly Maxwell, who, grief-stricken after the death of her parents, plots revenge against the Evil Dead.
Season 2 is also set to introduce Michelle Hurd as Ash’s former high school sweetheart, Lee Majors as Ash’s father, Brock Williams, and longtime Evil Dead franchise star Ted Raimi as Ash’s childhood best friend, Chet Kaminski.
The second season roars back into action with Ash leaving his beloved Jacksonville and returning to his hometown of Elk Grove. There, he confronts Ruby. The former enemies have to form an uneasy alliance as Elk Grove soon becomes the nucleus of evil.
Sam Raimi serves as executive producer with Rob Tapert (Evil Dead, Spartacus, Xena: Warrior Princess), Bruce Campbell and Ivan Raimi (Drag Me To Hell, Spider-Man 3) along with Craig DiGregorio (Workaholics, Chuck) who serves as executive producer / showrunner. Aaron Lam (Spartacus) and Moira Grant (Spartacus) serve as producers.
Ash vs Evil Dead season 2 will premiere this October.
