‘Dark Winds’ Renewed for Season 2 on AMC and AMC+

Western crime thriller “Dark Winds”, starring Zahn McClarnon, has been picked up for a six episode second season by AMC and its sister streaming service AMC+. Set in 1971 on a remote outpost of the Navajo Nation near Monument Valley, “Dark Winds” follows Lt. Joe Leaphorn of the Tribal Police (McClarnon) as he is besieged by a series of seemingly unrelated crimes. The closer he digs to the truth, the more he exposes the wounds of his past. He is joined on this journey by his new deputy, Jim Chee (Kiowa Gordon). Chee also has old scores to settle from his youth on the reservation. Together, the two men battle the forces of evil, each other and their own personal demons on the path to salvation.

The cast of “Dark Winds” also includes Jessica Matten, Deanna Allison, Rainn Wilson, Elva Guerra, Jeremiah Bitsui, Eugene Brave Rock, and Noah Emmerich.

Graham Roland created the series and serves as executive producer. McClarnon executive produces in addition to starring. Robert Redford, George R.R. Martin, Annie Hillerman, Chris Eyre, Vince Calandra, Vince Gerardis, and Tina Elmo also executive produce.
