What to expect in the new season
The first season of Criminal Record was a huge success for Apple TV. It captured audiences with the tense chemistry between the two lead characters. Now, the streaming platform is taking the story in a darker direction. Its new trailer shows Hegarty and Lenker putting aside their differences to work together. They are forced to form an uneasy alliance after a young man is stabbed to death at a political rally.
What starts as a simple hunt for a murderer quickly turns into something much bigger. The detectives find themselves caught in the middle of a massive undercover mission to stop a far-right bomb plot in the heart of London. The trailer gives viewers a clear peek at the chaos. It features a ticking bomb and rising political tensions that put the city at risk.
The new faces joining the cast
New cast members are also stepping into the picture this time around. Dustin Demri-Burns plays Cosmo Thompson, the gang leader who taunts the police with a recording of the bomb. Other fresh faces joining the show include Luca Pasqualino, Luther Ford, Lyndsey Marshal, and Peter Sullivan. Shaun Dooley and Stephen Campbell Moore are returning from the first season.
The show will premiere on April 22, with new episodes dropping weekly until the finale on June 10. This schedule gives viewers plenty of time to follow the clues alongside the detectives. It promises to be a thrilling ride for anyone looking for a solid police drama that does not shy away from complex issues.
