American Rust premiered as a Showtime drama back in 2021, but the show was ultimately cancelled after its initial batch of episodes. However, like a number of other shows nowadays, it was given a second life, with streaming service Prime Video swooping in to bring viewers American Rust season 2, which has the official title of American Rust: Broken Justice.
Based on Philipp Meyer's acclaimed novel American Rust, the crime drama was created for television by Dan Futterman, Oscar-nominated screenwriter of Capote and Foxcatcher. On screen, the series is headlined by Jeff Daniels and Maura Tierney, both of whom are back for this new batch of episodes.
