Amazon has released the first trailer for the second season of its first original hour-long crime-drama series “Bosch,” which is based on Michael Connelly’s best-selling Harry Bosch book series with nearly 50 million copies sold. According to Amazon, in season 1, “Bosch” achieved the biggest debut weekend among all Amazon Original Series and was the most-watched title on Prime Instant Video, across movies and TV series in its first four weeks.
Season 2 is based on Connelly’s bestselling novels “Trunk Music” and “The Drop,” with series stars Titus Welliver as Harry Bosch, Jamie Hector as his partner Jerry Edgar, Lance Reddick as Deputy Chief Irvin Irving, Amy Aquino as Lt. Grace Billets, and Sarah Clarke as Eleanor Wish, all returning. The series was developed by Eric Overmyer (“Treme,” “The Wire,” “Homicide: Life on the Streets”) and is Executive Produced by Overmyer, Connelly, Henrik Bastin and Pieter Jan Brugge.
“We’re delighted to see that Amazon customers have immediately embraced Bosch,” said Roy Price, Vice President, Amazon Studios. “Fans will soon be able to enjoy more of this inspired adaptation brought to life by a remarkably gifted cast.”
“I am very excited about continuing the Bosch story with season two,” said Michael Connelly. “I love what we started with and I think our plans for the second season will make the show even better and more exploratory of the character of Harry Bosch. We have a great cast and crew and we are all going to be one year better at this. I can’t wait.”
In the second season of “Bosch,” the relentless LAPD detective will investigate the murder of a Hollywood producer who laundered money for the mob. He will also pursue serial killer Chilton Hardy, as the investigations take Bosch from the Hollywood Hills down through the gritty back streets of L.A. and Las Vegas, threatening those closest to him – his teenage daughter and ex-wife.
There have been 19 Harry Bosch novels published since 1992, including 2014’s number-one bestseller “The Burning Room.” Prime members can watch all ten episodes of season 1 of “Bosch” if you haven’t already, with season 2 premiering on March 11.
