To the delight of the public, Netflix has announced the premiere of the second season for February 29th. The second season this time has Ireland as its backdrop. Jamie Dornan (Christian Gray from the Fifty Shades of Gray series) and Danielle Macdonald (Mandy Boyle from the Poker Face series) reprise their roles.

In the first season, the series “The Tourist” presents the story of Elliot, a British man who wakes up with no memory, in the Australian outback. He needs to use the few clues available to him to discover his identity and why he is being threatened with death. Danielle Macdonald plays Helen Chambers, a rookie police officer trying to find out what happened to Elliot.

In the second season, Elliot and Helen travel to Ireland to discover the true identity of the protagonist. However, the search for answers turns into a confrontation with the dangerous consequences of his past.

“The Tourist” premiered its first season with 6 episodes in 2022. Its creators Harry and Jack Williams explored deep themes related to identity and self-discovery. The series was initially intended to be a miniseries, but its success led to a sequel. The Tourist is a completely fictional work in which its creators wanted to bring to life a thriller unlike anything they had ever created before.

The series is a co-production of BBC One and Stan, with HBO Max as co-producer and distributor in the United States. It premiered on BBC One and in the HBO Max catalog. After HBO canceled it, Netflix added it to its catalog.

Now we just have to wait for the arrival of the new season of O Turista to enjoy different landscapes and reveal new puzzles.
