Mr. Mercedes stopped by San Diego Comic Con to talk about what audiences can expect in Season 2. The series is based on the three novels in the Bill Hodges trilogy, Mr. Mercedes, Finders Keepers, and End of Watch by Stephen King. The AT&T Original series airs on the AT&T AUDIENCE Network.
The show premiered on August 9th, 2017 and was developed by David E. Kelly and stars Brendan Gleeson and Harry Treadaway. In October of last year AT&T AUDIENCE Network renewed the series for a second season for a ten- episode run.
Mr. Mercedes centers around retired detective Bill Hodges who is still haunted by the unsolved case of “Mr. Mercedes,” who killed sixteen people when he drove a stolen Mercedes through a line of job-seekers at a local job fair. Meanwhile, brilliant young psychopath Brady Hartsfield, the real Mr. Mercedes, reemerges to focus his attention on Hodges. What begins as an online game of cat-and-mouse between the two soon has deadly real-life consequences as an increasingly desperate Hartsfield becomes bent on leaving his mark on the world.
