“They’re evolving, and they’re not gonna stop. Unless we stop them,” Bex (Melissa Roxburgh) warns the team in this brand new first look at Season 2 of The Hunting Party.
The series follows a small team of investigators who are assembled to track down and capture the most dangerous killers our country has ever seen, all of whom have just escaped from The Pit — a top-secret prison that’s not supposed to exist. But as the team tracks, investigates, and neutralizes each threat they begin to discover the inmates of the Pit have undergone a series of highly unethical and illegal experimentation, resulting in even more dangerous escapees with deep motives for revenge.
Returning Jan. 8 2026, the show promises to be bigger, badder and … even weirder than ever before, with a slew of new Pit villains waiting in the wings. But who will we see taking center stage this season? NBC teases that Eric McCormack, Finnigan McCormack, Kelsey Grammer, Niecy Nash-Betts, Liz Gillies, Jefferson White, and more are all set to guest this year.
Take a look at the just-released teaser trailer for Season 2 below. And if like us, you’re hoping to catch a glimpse of Nick Wechsler’s Oliver Odell, who we last saw poisoned by a cyanide patch by killer chemist Jenna Wells, leaving his fate and the team’s future unknown, then prepare to wait a little longer on that front!
The show, also starring Patrick Sabongui, Josh McKenzie and Sara Garcia, returns Thursday, Jan. 8 2026 at 10/9c on NBC.
The Hunting Party, how we’ve missed you!
