Paramount+ today announced that filming is underway in and around Sydney, on the highly-anticipated second season of Australian original series Last King of The Cross, where the stakes are higher, the threats are greater, and the all new enemies are far more dangerous.
Set to captivate audiences once again, Lincoln Younes and Claude Jabbour return as the characters of brothers John and Sam Ibrahim. The family dynamic takes centre stage this season, with audiences introduced to the characters of John’s younger brothers Michael Ibrahim, played by popular digital creator Dave Hoey (Granny Flat Comedy), and Fadi, played by newcomer Alex Kaan.
Also making their return to the underworld are the characters of Detective Liz Doyle (Tess Haubrich), Big Tony (Matt Nable), Tongan Sam (Uli Latukefu) and Simone (Janet Anderson).
18 months on from the events of season one, Last King of The Cross season two begins with Kings Cross a shadow of itself, John lying low overseas and Sam locked up in jail.
Returning to Sydney, John sets his sights on capturing a new kingdom – the glittering prize of Oxford Street, Sydney’s nightclub empire. And with it, comes all new challenges and enemies. John is thrown into a struggle for power with the reigning queen of Oxford Street, Ray Kinnock, who is determined to either keep John out, or take him down, while facing the relentless scrutiny of newly promoted Senior Sergeant Liz Doyle and her new taskforce.
But perhaps John’s greatest threat comes directly from his family. Released from jail, Sam builds the largest bikie chapter in Australian history, putting John on a collision course with the entire criminal world, while their youngest brother Michael walks a moral tightrope, grappling between a life of promise – or throttling head-first into a life of crime.
