Ballard Season 2 Release Date On Prime Video Gets Major New Update From Michael Connelly

I’m so excited for more Ballard! Michael Connelly, the creator and writer, just let us know when we can finally expect season 2 to drop on Prime Video. It’s great to have an update!

Michael Connelly recently shared on the Books on the Beach podcast that the second season of Bosch: Legacy (formerly Ballard) is expected to arrive “either later this year or early next year.” Filming is currently underway, and they’ve completed about half of the season, but Prime Video hasn’t announced an official release date yet.

In the same interview, Connelly also mentioned he’s okay with TV adaptations of his books even when they go beyond the original storylines and create new content after finishing the source material.

Harry Bosch author Michael Connelly has written six books starring detective Renee Ballard, including The Late Show, Dark Sacred Night, The Night Fire, The Dark Hours, Desert Star, and The Waiting. While all six feature Ballard, only two center around her solving cold cases – the focus of the TV show. The other four books depict her experiences working the overnight shift in Hollywood.

They’re out [of material] already after the season they’re filming right now,” Connelly explained.

After season 2 of Ballard comes out, the show’s creators will face the challenge of developing fresh stories for Renee Ballard if Prime Video decides to renew the series for a third season.
