Good news for fans of Prime Video’s latest sci-fi hit, The Peripheral. The series just landed a season 2 renewal.

The show stars Chloë Grace Moretz as Flynne Fisher, a woman trying to hold together the pieces of her broken family in a forgotten corner of tomorrow’s America. Flynne is smart and ambitious, but with no future; until the future comes calling for her. The series is based on the best-selling novel of the same name by William Gibson.

“William’s mind-bending story in partnership with the brilliant minds of Scott [B. Smith] and Jonathan [Nolan] and Lisa [Joy], produced an unforgettable journey for our global audience and we are thrilled with how they embraced the series,” said Vernon Sanders, head of global television at Amazon Studios. “We look forward to extending our partnership with Warner Bros. and Kilter Films as this uniquely ambitious series continues to unfold.”  

Here’s the official synopsis of season 1 from Prime Video:

Stuck in a small Appalachian town, a young woman’s only escape from the daily grind is playing advanced video games. She is such a good player that a company sends her a new video game system to test…but it has a surprise in store. It unlocks all of her dreams of finding a purpose, romance, and glamour in what seems like a game…

In addition to Moretz, season 1 of The Peripheral also starred Jack Reynor, Gary Carr, Eli Goree, Louis Herthum, JJ Feild, T’Nia Miller, Charlotte Riley, Alexandra Billings, Adelind Horan, Alex Hernandez, Katie Leung, Julian Moore-Cook, Melinda Page Hamilton, Chris Coy, and Austin Rising.
