Actor Kevin Bacon Expresses Fervent Desire for Revival of "The Bondsman" to Explore Infernal Depths Further
Go Gonna Check Out 'The Bondsman'? 😈
Here's the lowdown on the burly take on redemption, country music, and soul-snatching you've been eagerly waiting for—The Bondsman. Kevin Bacon is at it again on Prime Video, and this time it's all about a small-town bail bondsman going to... well, hell, and back!
As a badass bail bondsman, he commits a monstrous deed, bites the dust, and then discovers the Devil's got some wicked uses for him. Back on Earth, he's tasked with bagging escaped demons and casually returning them to where they belong—that's right, the inferno of eternal torture! It's a goofy, rapid-paced rollercoaster ride, and ya boy Kevin's up for a second helping.
Now, whether The Bondsman receives a second coming depends on the almighty decision of Prime Video. The show's lead, you know who, and its mastermind, writer, and executive producer, Erik Olesen, have their digits crossed for a celestial rating boost. True to form, season one ends with an unexpected plot twist that flat-out screams further adventures! 🌪️
"I cooked up something devilishly sinister for a potential season two," Olesen shared with Variety. "I aimed to make it arduous for Prime Video to resist prolonging The Bondsman’s torment." He went on to spill that they've barely scratched the surface of this wild world, and there's simply more to unveil.
In the same breath, Bacon seconded the emotion and hinted at a desire to delve deeper into his character, Hub Halloran: a disillusioned musician, failed family man, and Satan's freelance exorcist. Along his sizzling trail of destruction, he gets his paws dirty in hard-hitting showdowns, like a mind-boggling underwater brawl and a thrilling showdown with a fiery chainsaw. 🔥
"Prime Video hasn't given a greenlight to season two, but we've already chatted about the possibilities," Bacon revealed, adding a whiff of intrigue to the mix. "Exploring Hub's struggles—be it emotional or physical trials—is definitely on the table, if they decide to give us the nod."
