PBS MASTERPIECE has released an official trailer for the second season of Maigret, the first contemporary television adaptation of Georges Simenon's novels. Maigret season 2 airs beginning on Sunday, October 18.
Benjamin Wainwright (Belgravia: The Next Chapter, Lord of the Rings: War of the Rohirrim) stars as Jules Maigret, with Stefanie Martini (The Gold, Last Kingdom, Emerald City) as Madame Louise Maigret. The cast also includes Blake Harrison (World on Fire, I Hate Suzie Too), Reda Elazouar (Sex Education, Pirates), Kerrie Hayes (The Responder, Criminal Record), Shaniqua Okwok (The Flatshare, It's a Sin) and Rob Kazinsky (Star Trek: Section 31, Eastenders), and Nathalie Armin (Showtrial, Juice).
In Season 2, Maigret "faces his greatest test yet. As crimes grip Paris, Maigret finds himself fighting on two fronts: hunting dangerous killers while defending his unorthodox methods against internal politics, betrayal, and a department waiting for his luck to run out," MASTERPIECE noted.
