Billy the Kid S2
Billy the Kid returns for an epic second season starring Tom Blyth (Coriolanus Snow in The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes) as the infamous outlaw.
Already renewed for a third season, the epic romantic adventure from Vikings creator Michael Hirst traces the life of Billy the Kid from his humble Irish roots and his early days as a cowboy and gunslinger in the American frontier to his pivotal role in the Lincoln County War and beyond.
The new season opens with a war brewing in Lincoln County between rival businessmen Murphy and Tunstall. After seeing the Irishman’s brutal ways, Billy joins Tunstall in his battle to stop Murphy and the corrupt organisation, the House… even if it means being enemies with his best friend, Jesse. Meanwhile, attorney Mr Catron sends his son-in-law, Mr Waltz, to gather information on Billy.
Season 1 was nominated for several awards in Canada, with Chad Rook winning Best Lead Performance by a Male in a Dramatic Series at the 2023 Leo Awards, where the show won Best Cinematography in a Dramatic Series.
