Final Act for Nazi Hunters and Rescuers in South America,
Kate Mulvany, Josh Radnor, Jerrika Hinton, and Logan Lerman in 'Hunters' Season 2

Hunters

The outrageous thriller about Nazi hunters seeking retribution moves ahead two years from Season 1’s shocking climactic reveal that Adolf Hitler—and his partner Eva Braun (Lena Olin’s “Colonel”)—are still alive, hiding in Argentina. (The time jump makes sense, given that it’s been two years between seasons.) In the final batch of eight episodes, available for binge-watching, Jonah (Logan Lerman) joins forces with Detective Millie Morris (Jerrika Hinton) to bring what’s left of the team back together to track down this ultimate evil and bring the villain of all time to justice. Jennifer Jason Leigh joins the colorful cast of action-hero archetypes, while Al Pacino (as the faux Meyer Offerman) appears in flashbacks.

Breaking their kidnapped target out of a Venezuelan prison was just half the battle. In the season finale of writer-director Mark Boal’s action series, Special Ops warriors Bambi (Luke Evans) and Prince (Michiel Huisman) now have to figure a way to get out of Colombia with their prize asset, Amber (Jessica Ann Collins), who’s an emotional wreck on many levels. Given that their rescue has triggered a war between two South American nations, the manhunt is especially intense as they take flight through a crowded market.
