The Old Man season 2’s premiere date has been revealed at FX, and it’s soon. Based on the 2017 novel by Tom Perry, the adaptation stars Bridges in the lead role of a seemingly average person with a dangerous past and several aliases. Developed by the duo of Jonathan E. Steinberg and Robert Levine and with supporting actors, including John Lithgow, E. J. Bonilla and Alia Shawkat, season 1 received generally positive reviews, leading to much anticipation about The Old Man season 2.

At the TCA 2024 summer press tour, via Deadline, it was confirmed that The Old Man season 2 will be released on Thursday, September 12 at 10 p.m. ET on FX with the first two episodes of the eight-episode season. All episodes will stream the next day on Hulu.

What To Remember Before The Old Man Season 2

The Season 1 Cliffhanger Will Have An Impact.

Following the eventful Old Man season 1 finale, it sounds like the FX series will continue to examine how personal relationships impact the most high-stakes situations. Former CIA partners Chase and Harold (Lithgow), now a higher-up at the FBI, were supporting Afghanistan rebel leader Faraz Hamzad (Pej Vahdat) three decades ago, but their operation went south. Young Chase (Bill Heck) fell in love with the rebel’s wife, Belour Hamzad (Leem Lubany), and they ran away to live their own life in the U.S. That life included a daughter, Angela Adams (Shawkat).

Towards the end of season 1, it’s revealed that Faraz is Angela’s real father. The finale ends with Angela and Faraz (played in the present day by Navid Negahban). The closing episode becomes a question of what Chase, Harold, and Faraz would risk for Angela’s safety and well-being, each of them looking at her as a daughter in some way. But the facts of the situation are complicated since Angela, who is abducted and taken to Faraz, does not know that he is her father. Zoe (Brenneman) also gets drawn in by the dangers of Dan’s life, causing some complications for her.
