'Killing Eve' Season 2 Will Premiere in April

BBC America's fantastic drama Killing Eve will return to the airwaves with Season 2 this coming April.

There are moments in every TV reviewer's life when you watch a pilot, and it's like discovering a gem no one has seen yet, and you want to rush out and tell everyone. In 2018, that pilot episode was for Killing Eve, BBC America's first major hit since Orphan Black concluded. The series stars Sandra Oh (Grey's Anatomy) as Eve Polastri, an MI-5 desk jockey with an obsession with female serial killers. Her co-star, Jodie Comer (The White Princess) plays Villanelle, conveniently a female serial killer.

It's a match made in cat and mouse heaven, and Oh's performance is one for the ages, as evidenced by her Emmy nomination and Golden Globe win for the role. Her Emmy nomination was historic, the first Asian woman to ever be nominated for Best Actress in a Drama, and her Golden Globes win was also history-making, as she is now the first woman of Asian descent to win more than one Globe in her career. (She was also the first Asian woman ever to host the Globes, and she did a damn fine job last night with Andy Samberg, if I may say.)
