Season two of Netflix's Mindhunter will come out some time later this year, if all goes according to actor Holt McCallany's comments at the Vulture Festival in May 2018. The fictionalized series follows the investigations of FBI agents Holden Ford and Bill Tench, who undertake the task of criminal profiling to learn more about what motivates serial killers. The show is based on the true crime book Mindhunter: Inside the FBI's Elite Serial Crime Unit written by John E. Douglas and Mark Olshaker.
While Holden and Bill are fictionalized, many of the criminals that they profile were real people, including Ed Kemper, Montie Rissell, Herry Brudos, and Richard Speck. It's been announced that Damon Herriman will, in season two, be portraying Charles Manson (who he also plays in the upcoming Tarantino film Once Upon a Time in Hollywood).
Release date: TBA
