Reid, actor in the TV series "7 Hours" renewed for second season

The Apple TV+ series "7 Hours", starring the famous actor Idris Elba, who plays Reed in "Cyberpunk 2077: Shadows of the Past", has been confirmed to be renewed for a second season.

Elba will once again play negotiator Sam Nelson in this drama series. The first season of the seven-episode series, which premiered in July 2023, tells the story of the protagonist Sam, who uses his negotiation skills to defuse the situation and try to save all the passengers when his flight from Dubai to London is hijacked. However, this hijacking is not just a simple terrorist attack - the conspiracy is deeper than it seems.

"I was blown away by the response we've received since the first season," the actor said in a statement. "What more Sam Nelson will encounter remains top secret, but I can assure you we will be bringing back the excitement of the first season."

Season 2 will not include many of the other actors who appeared in the first episode, but season 1 director and co-creator Jim Field Smith is confirmed to return as head director.

As usual, the plot of the second season is still strictly confidential, but it is clear that he will not encounter hijacking again, after all, that would be too boring. However, the name of the series is "Hijack", and how the second season will live up to its name can only be found out when it is broadcast. The series has not yet announced the planned premiere time.
