‘Ozark’ Unveils the Official Trailer for Season 2

Netflix has released the full trailer for the dramatic series, Ozark, starring Jason Bateman and Laura Linney. Season two will premiere on August 31, 2018.

In addition to Bateman and Linney, the season two cast includes Julia Garner (The Americans, Waco) and Janet McTeer (Jessica Jones, Battle Creek). Bateman, Chris Mundy, Bill Dubuque, and Mark Williams serve as executive producers, with Bateman also directing the first two episodes.

The Season 2 Plot: In its much-anticipated second season, Ozark continues to follow Marty Bryde and his family as they navigate the murky waters of life within a dangerous drug cartel. With Del out, the crime syndicate sends their ruthless attorney Helen Pierce to town to shake things up just as The Byrdes are finally settling in.

Marty and Wendy struggle to balance their family interests amid the escalating dangers presented by their partnerships with the power-hungry Snells, the cartel and their new deputy, Ruth Langmore, whose father Cade has been released from prison. The stakes are even higher than before and The Byrdes soon realize they have to go all in before they can get out.

A Look Back at Season 1: A Chicago financial advisor, who has been quietly laundering money for a drug kingpin, must quickly uproot his family and move the operation to The Ozarks, after his partner is caught cheating the business. There, he bumps heads with both a local drug dealer whose business he inadvertently interrupts, and a clan of ruffians, led by their 19-year-old niece, who want his money, all the while avoiding the eye of a tenacious FBI agent. He must complete his laundering, to save the life of his family, as they struggle to find their own path in this seemingly foreign way of life.
