HANNA – SEASON 2 (Amazon Prime Video)
LAST year, screenwriter David Farr successfully rebooted the 2011 action-thriller Hanna as a series about a 15-year-old girl who is trained by her father in Poland to evade a ruthless CIA agent on their trail.
In these eight instalments, Hanna (Esme Creed-Miles) and new friend Clara (Yasmin Monet Prince) go on the run from assassin programme director John Carmichael (Dermot Mulroney) and his second-incommand, Leo Garner (Anthony Welsh).
As Hanna learns about other young woman with the same skills, she must trust in her CIA nemesis to be free from the agency that created her.
