Amazon Renews ‘The Man In The High Castle’ For A Second Season

Amazon Studios has found another original series that’s become a hit with audiences. The Man in the High Castle will get a second season thanks to positive responses from Prime subscribers and critics alike.

Created by Frank Spotnitz (The X-Files) and executive produced by Ridley Scott (Blade Runner), The Man in the High Castle explores an alternate history where Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan won World War II and are controlling two separate parts of the United States during the 1960s. The drama series, which is (kinda-but-not-really) based off a Philip K. Dick novel, stars Alexa Davalos, Rupert Evans, Rufus Sewell, Luke Kleintank, DJ Qualls, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, and Joel de la Fuente.

Amazon originally announced The Man in the High Castle back in November 2014 during its fifth pilot season. The first episode of the alt-history show became Amazon’s most-watched pilot to date, and so the digital studio branch of the e-commerce giant ordered a full season in February 2015. The official trailer for The Man in the High Castle dropped exclusively at Comic-Con International in July before the first season premiered on Amazon Prime in November.

No official release date has been announced for The Man in the High Castle season two as of yet, but Amazon believes the new episodes should be available at some point in 2016.
