When will the series “Too Old to Die Young Season 2” be released?
After the end of the season 1 show, the management of Amazon made an official statement on the closure of the project. Most likely, the low rating of the series is to blame. On the other hand, some sources claimed that the director planned to release only 1 season.
Plot
Shortly before the events described in the series, two cops, Larry and Martin, killed the owner of the drug cartel, Magdalena, who had an adult son Jesus left. The next patrol shift ended for Martin and Larry by killing Larry. It was the informant who told Jesus who the killer of his mother was. After quitting with Larry, Jesus is seeking refuge with his dying uncle in Mexico.
However, the whole truth does not know anyone except Martin. During his lifetime, Larry told everyone that he had only participated in the death of Magdalena, but the fact of the murder was carried out by Martin. Martin has his own thoughts on this subject, which he has to share with a certain group of people. Unfortunately, the truth remains on the side of the deceased, who denied his guilt.
What was surprising Martin when he found out who was the informant who passed Larry and himself. But the revenge of Jesus, concerned about the business of his own mother and her sudden death, had not yet been fully accomplished. Jesus just has to learn about Martin’s mind. Or can a cop get to him earlier?
The situation is complicated by Martin’s strange relationship with a 17-year-old schoolgirl, with whom he has been dating for a year. The girl is deeply in love with her adult chosen one, and even requires an acquaintance with her own father, which becomes a real challenge for the cop. As a result, Martin manages to position the obstinate father of his chosen one, no matter how strange he may seem to him.
The first episode of the season 1 is a real test, as the plot is drawn out and needs attention. But after watching half the episode, this approach becomes clear. The entanglement of the plot takes time to think, hence the pauses and breaks in the monologues. And every little thing becomes evidence to what will be shown in the next series. Do not miss the premiere of the season 2, where the audience is waiting for a new intrigue!

Interesting Facts
- Critics complain about a too complicated plot. But if you get used to the big pauses between the dialogues from the first minutes, you can follow the plot without any problems. The main characters are not as many as they seem, but some of them are sifted out faster than the viewer has time to remember.
- Miles Teller already has experience of negative roles in his arsenal. That only is his character from the film “Divergent”, which only could that make fun of people who are not able to answer him. It was because of this role that Teller was invited to the project “Too Old to Die Young”.
- At the time of the filming of the series, Nell Tiger Free has just turned 18 years old. Her mother almost filed a lawsuit against the television station when she saw outright scenes involving her own daughter. For more than a month, Nell persuaded her mother not to file a lawsuit, but the director simply promised the woman to cut out scenes where Nell could at least partially see naked. Out of respect for the mother’s feelings, the scene with Nell and Miles Teller was recounted.
- William Baldwin twice refused the role, because he was very sick and could not spend much time on the filming. But the creators of the series insisted on his participation, which flattered the actor and he nevertheless agreed. The series shows how he has lost weight – Lyme disease, caused by tick bites, is to blame.
