The popular American crime drama series American Rust is scheduled to premiere its second season on March 28, 2024. The show originally aired on Showtime in 2021, and Amazon revived the series, commencing its return after a three-year hiatus.
American Rust is based on the novel of the same name by Philipp Meyer. Fans were first introduced to the sleepy Pennsylvanian town that Chief Del Harris (Jeff Daniels) oversees in season 1 of the beloved television series, and it's a place full of surprises.
The official synopsis of the second season reads:
"Del Harris (Jeff Daniels) and Grace Poe (Maura Tierney) try to rebuild their lives after the harrowing events of Season One. Season Two picks up with a string of seemingly unrelated murders, hinting at a much larger conspiracy that threatens everyone in this small, tight-knit town."
Season 2 of the series, titled American Rust: Broken Justice, will see the return of prominent cast members like Jeff Daniels, Maura Tierney, and Rob Yang, among others. Here is a complete look at the cast for the upcoming season of American Rust on Prime Video.
