Netflix Ozark season 2 reveal trailer teases August 31 return

Netflix original drama Ozark is finally back in the spotlight. The company has released a reveal trailer for the upcoming second season, which drops on August 31. We get around one minute of scenes from the upcoming season, each hinting at a return of the same dark storyline, but with a narrative that's even more intense.

Netflix launched the first (and currently only) season for Ozark last year, quickly earning itself a new hit. The show enjoys solid ratings and a strong fan base, many of whom compare it to Breaking Bad, hinting at a potential small-screen blockbuster for the company. The show's return has, until now, been kept quiet.

Ozark is the brainchild of Bill Dubuque; it stars Jason Bateman at Marty Byrde, a former Chicagoan who has to relocate his family to the Ozarks as part of a tense deal made with a drug lord. The show revolves upon a foundation of crime, one that quickly grows strained. The teaser above shows no signs of relief in season 2.

The trailer above keeps each scene very brief; there are no spoilers for new and all-caught-up viewers. Netflix, as with all of its original content, will release the entire second season at the same time on August 31. The show is available in all regions where Netflix is officially available.
