From the first episode, I was utterly taken in by the Amazon Prime series Hunters. The darkly comic – and sometimes just plain dark – series impressed with the intriguing storyline and the fantastic talent behind and in front of the camera. And now, we have the return of this complex and fascinating series. The good news is the second season brings on a whole set of brilliant elements, including Jennifer Jason Leigh. She joins Logan Lerman, Al Pacino, Josh Radnor, Carol Kane, Greg Austin, Tiffany Boone, Louis Ozawa, and Lena Olin. The bad news, for this viewer at least, is that this is also its final season. And you can check it out now on Prime.
We recently spoke to several of the fine folks behind this excellent series. And happily, it was a joy to chat with Mr. Logan Lerman again. When I asked him about taking on a producer role, he had an unexpected yet entertaining answer. It’s always great to speak with the man, and he is excellent in the continuation of this story.
We also spoke with a number of this impressive cast. Josh Radnor opened up about playing a character with more than a few secrets in his life. As for both Tiffany Boone and Louis Ozawa, it was a thrill chatting about the direction their characters were taking this time around. It was also excellent hearing about Ms. Boone’s fan love for Jennifer Jason Leigh and getting to work with her here. And finishing up the cast, we also spoke with the very charming and kind Greg Austin, who happily opened up about a few intimate on-screen moments he shared with Lena Olin.
Finishing up the day, we spoke with the series creator, David Weil, and he’s about as nice as you could hope for. As someone who appreciated what he was doing with this series, he talked about finishing up what he started. Here’s hoping we’ll see some continuation down the road regarding one or more characters. Either way, speaking with David and the fine collection of actors was a joy. If you dug the first season, you won’t want to miss Hunters Season 2, available now on Prime.
