MGM+ has released the official Beacon 23 Season 2 trailer for the upcoming return of the sci-fi drama, starring If Beale Street Could Talk’s Stephan James. The next installment premieres on April 7 on MGM+ with eight new episodes.
“The series takes place in the farthest reaches of the Milky Way and Season 1 followed Aster, a government agent, and Halan, a stoic ex-military man, whose fates became entangled after they found themselves trapped together inside one of many Beacons that served as a lighthouse for intergalactic travelers,” reads the synopsis. “In Season 2, Beacon 23 is now little more than a prison with Aleph onboard, and The Artifact provides more questions than answers. Without a clear path forward, the inhabitants of Beacon 23 must rely on each other, but their conflicting agendas may get in the way.”
