Kevin Bacon’s supernatural series The Bondsman has the hallmarks to last for at least a couple of seasons. A charming lead, an intriguing story, a highly digestible format – all the ingredients are there.
Moreover, it became a fan favourite soon after landing on Prime Video, proving there’s plenty of demand for an entertaining horror series. Hopefully, the streaming overlords are paying attention, and The Bondsman will return to fight another day.
The Bondsman Season 2 Release Date
The Bondsman premiered on April 3, 2025. At the time of writing, it hasn’t been officially renewed for more episodes. However, the reviews are good and the audience is on board, so it has a great shot of making a comeback.
The show’s creators seem to think so, too. “I intentionally wrote Season 1 to have an ending that would make it difficult for Amazon not to give Kevin and me more chances to make more episodes. We were evil, devious partners in trying to make sure this show goes the distance,” showrunner Erik Oleson told LA Times.
In case we do get The Bondsman season 2, it will likely premiere sometime in early 2026. We’re keeping our fingers crossed.

What Will Happen in The Bondsman Season 2?
The series stars Kevin Bacon as Hub Halloran, a bounty hunter who gets murdered on the job. As luck will have it, he gets a new chance at life as long as he agrees to work for the devil.
In short, he has to capture demons, and maybe atone for some of his own sins in the process. Add an estranged wife and an abandoned musical career in the mix and you pretty much get the gist of the supernatural shenanigans about to ensue.
The Bondsman mixes action and horror well, sprinkles the occasional humour, and takes viewers on a wild (and gory) ride.
By the end of season 1, Hub is at another crossroads and makes a choice that will likely play out over the course of The Bondsman season 2. Without giving away spoilers, his job description gets even more demanding. We’re eager to see how he gets out of this jam.
Are There Other Shows Like The Bondsman?
If you’re a fan of The Bondsman’s particular flavour of horror, you’ll be happy to know there are a few similar titles you can sample. The list includes Ash vs Evil Dead, Preacher, and Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency.
Additionally, you can’t go wrong with Supernatural. That’s 15 seasons brimming with demon possessions and hellish adventures. The brotherly bond is just the cherry on top.
