The 1-minute trailer itself makes sure that the audience is glued to the screens till the end. The first season was a big hit, and it took two years for the makers to come up with season 2. The bone-chilling trailer has featured the actors, namely Jonathan Groff as Holden Ford, Holt Mcgallany as Bill Trench, Anna Torv, as Wendy Carr. What it has in store for you? The director had mentioned in an interview that the first season had been set in 1977 when crimes and criminal psychology had been a very rare issue and not completely understood, but the 2nd season takes a leap of a couple of years when these factors have become crucial. Hence, expect brutality.
The Atlanta child murders will be in the backdrop of the late ’70s or at maximum early ’80s. Spoiler alert for those who haven’t seen the promo yet! The promo starts with Son of Sam, the serial killer (David Berkowitz), and it also shows the thrilling return of the BTK killer. Apart from that, the family issues of Trench would be seen to continue. You might get to see Wendy’s love interest this season. If you are already excited and can’t wait, you can quickly get hold of the book MINDHUNTER: inside the FBI’s Elite serial crime unit.
For those who are yet to catch up on season 1! It is set in the backdrop of 1977 when criminal psychology and profiling were new in the Federal Bureau of investigation. The FB agents played by some great actors mentioned above would be talking to the imprisoned ones to understand the behavioral sciences of criminal psychology, which would, in turn, help them solve several cases. The first season was an extreme hit, so it is better to watch and review yourself.
