Fans of Martin Compston's electrifying performance in 'The Rig' can rejoice as Prime Video has officially greenlit a second season of the hit mystery thriller. The Scottish actor, best known for his role in 'Line of Duty', will return to the treacherous oil rig where supernatural forces and human greed collide.
What to Expect in Season 2
The first season left viewers on the edge of their seats with its gripping storyline and eerie atmosphere. Season 2 promises to delve deeper into the dark secrets of the Kinloch Bravo rig, with Compston's character, Fulmer Hamilton, facing even greater dangers.
Key highlights of the upcoming season include:
- New twists in the supernatural mystery
- Higher stakes for the stranded crew
- Stunning cinematography capturing the harsh North Sea setting
Why 'The Rig' Stands Out
This Amazon Original series has been praised for its unique blend of workplace drama and supernatural horror. The show's authentic portrayal of offshore oil rig life, combined with its thrilling plot, has made it a standout in Prime Video's lineup.
Compston's powerful performance anchors the series, supported by a talented ensemble cast including Emily Hampshire and Iain Glen. The series' success highlights the growing appetite for British-produced thrillers with a distinctive edge.
Production Details
Filming for the new season is set to begin soon, with the creative team promising even more intense action and psychological drama. The production will once again utilize cutting-edge visual effects to bring the rig's haunting environment to life.
While an exact release date hasn't been announced, industry insiders suggest the new episodes could arrive by late 2024 or early 2025.
