Here’s your first look at the Stan Original Series Scrublands: Silver and the premiere date is on the horizon.

Good news crime fiends! The highly anticipated second season of the Stan Original Series Scrublands: Silver is almost here.

The new season will premiere April 17, with all episodes dropping simultaneously, exclusively on Stan.

Shot against the stunning landscapes of Augusta, Western Australia, the second season reunites Luke Arnold (Black Sails) and Bella Heathcote (The Family Next Door) following their critically acclaimed performances in the smash-hit first season.

ICYMI: the first season followed investigative journalist, Martin Scarsden, as he uncovered dark secrets behind a priest's mass murder in the isolated town of Riversend.

Season two is set one year after the events of Scrublands, as Scarsden (Arnold) returns to his coastal hometown of Port Silver to build a new life with partner Mandy Bond (Heathcote). But his homecoming takes a dark turn when he discovers his childhood friend Jasper has been brutally murdered — and Mandy is the prime suspect.

As Martin grapples with doubts about Mandy and his own ability to find the truth, he launches an investigation to find the real killer. His quest uncovers long-buried secrets about Port Silver and his own past.

The second season features an impressive ensemble including Luke Carroll (The Artful Dodger), Debra Lawrance (Please Like Me), David Roberts (Please Like Me), Tasma Walton (The Twelve), Luke Pegler (Hacksaw Ridge) and Caroline Brazier (Year Of).

The rest of the stellar cast is rounded out by Joel Jackson (Peter Allen: Not the Boy Next Door), Toby Truslove (La Brea), Sarah Roberts (Home and Away), Hamish Michael (The Twelve), Radek Jonak (The Surfer) and Damian De Montemas (Hounds of Love).
