Hanna is the small screen creation of David Farr (The Night Manager, MI-5), manifesting as an adaptation of the 2011 film of the same name (which Farr co-wrote,) directed by Joe Wright, which starred Saoirse Ronan.

Just as the film was major breakthrough for Ronan, the Amazon television adaptation has quickly become a breakout moment for its star, Esme Creed-Miles, whose performance as the eponymous character is consistently cited amongst the praise the series has reaped. Additionally, fans of the AMC-later-Netflix crime series, The Killing, can enjoy former co-stars and police partners, Joel Kinnaman and Mireille Enos, reunited onscreen, this time in an adversarial dynamic.

The 8-episode inaugural season of the action-drama – focused on the titular deadly, wilderness-trained teenager who's hunted by a relentless CIA agent – only just premiered on March 29. Yet, it appears that early metrics and an array of positive reviews (including our own review,) prompted Amazon to announce an early greenlight on Thursday for the second season of Hanna.

Star Esme Creed-Miles chimed in on the renewal with a grateful video message.

As Albert Cheng, Co-Head of Television, Amazon Studios, lauds of the renewal in a statement:

Quote
“We knew we had something unique with Hanna, and with the added momentum from its special post-Super Bowl preview, Amazon Prime Video customers worldwide agreed.” He adds, “Since it debuted only ten days ago, Hanna has had a tremendous response, and we’re thrilled with not only how it has performed for us on the service, but with the action-packed world David Farr has created for the series and the stellar cast, led by Esmé Creed-Miles, Mireille Enos, and Joel Kinnaman. We’re excited to give fans a chance to see Hanna continue her journey on Amazon.”

As Farr expresses in a statement, teasing the direction of Season 2:

Quote
“I am very much looking forward to taking Hanna on the next stage of her journey. It’s been a wonderful experience so far, and I feel hugely supported by NBCU, Working Title and Amazon. The next season will take us into a whole new imaginative world. I can’t wait to explore fresh terrain for this lonely young woman who wants only to belong, but who has to fight every day just to survive.”

Hanna Season 2 will continue with Farr in the series driver’s seat, in which he serves as writer, executive producer and credited creator. He will be joined by a returning gaggle of producers, with Tom Coan as Executive Producer for NBCUniversal International Studios, with Andrew Woodhead, Eric Fellner and Tim Bevan for Working Title Television, along with Marty Adelstein and Becky Clements and Scott Nemes. Additionally, Laura Hastings-Smith (The Little Drummer Girl, Hunger) will board the series as producer for Season 2.
