‘Homestead: The Series’ Officially Returns After 2 Years Hiatus With an Epic First Look

Angel Studios has had plenty of popular movies hit the screen in the last few years, including Runner, the new film starring Alan Ritchson. Ritchson is best known for his role as Jack Reacher in Prime Video’s Reacher series, which recently aired its fourth season — the show has already been renewed for Seasons 5 and 6. Back in 2024, Angel found a box office hit with Homestead, the Neal McDonough-led action movie that grossed over $20 million at the box office against a modest $5 million budget. McDonough can be seen starring in one of Taylor Sheridan‘s most popular shows, Tulsa King, which is now in the middle of its fourth season. Not only has the film found a home streaming on Angel’s streaming platform, but it can also be watched on Paramount Plus.

On the very same day that Homestead hit theaters, Angel Studios released the first season of Homestead: The Series, which serves as a direct continuation of the film. The show is based on the bestselling Black Autumn book series by Jeff Kirkham and Jason Ross, the pen name for Jayson Orvis, who also created the series with showrunner Ben Kasica. After a successful first season in 2024, Angel Studios renewed Homestead: The Series for Season 2, which is set to roll out on Tuesday, November 3. Before the premiere, though, Collider is happy to partner with Angel to exclusively preview some new images from Season 2, as well as synopsis for all eight episodes, which can be found below.

Four icons and four completely different ways of walking into trouble.
This is the one you would have been out there, why it fits, and what it would have cost you.

You have never explained yourself and you have never needed to,
because people work out fairly quickly that you are the most capable person in the room
without you ever having to mention it.

Eastwood built the character out of everything he refused to do, stripping away the
backstory, the speeches and every bit of reassurance until only the competence was left.
You keep your own counsel, and while other people occasionally find that unnerving, you
have never felt any real need to fix it for them.
The Dollars films work because he genuinely is in it for himself right up until the
moment he is not, and he never explains that part either.
You would be gone before anybody got a chance to thank you.

You are the funniest person in most rooms and the most loyal
person in all of them, and you would be genuinely insulted if somebody suggested those two
things were in any tension.

Doc has no real reason to be in this fight beyond the fact that his friend is in it,
which is the only reason he has ever needed for anything.
You lead with wit, and it does a very effective job of hiding how seriously you take the
handful of people you actually care about.
Val Kilmer’s performance is the most quoted in the entire genre because the jokes keep
getting sharper as the situation gets worse.
You would spend everything you had on this and still describe it as a good week.

You never wanted this job, and you took it anyway because the
alternative was standing there watching somebody less careful do it badly, which is the most
Western reason there has ever been.

Earp is the reluctant authority figure, a man who came to town specifically to be left
alone and somehow ended up answerable for all of it.
You are protective by instinct, so when something goes wrong your first thought is who
is exposed rather than who is to blame.
These films understand that keeping order costs far more than breaking it, and that the
person holding the line almost never gets thanked.
You would do the whole thing again, and you would complain about it the entire time.

Nobody has ever successfully talked you out of something you had
already decided was right, and a long line of grown adults has found that out the hard way.

Mattie is the most relentless character in the Western canon and she manages it through
argument, paperwork and flat refusal rather than a fast draw.
You have no patience for being managed, so you negotiate, you check the details and you
turn up exactly when you said you would.
True Grit is the rare Western where the moral centre is the youngest person on screen
and every adult around her has to catch up.
You would get what you came for, and the film is honest about what that takes out of
you.

The official synopsis for Homestead: The Series Season 2, Episode 1, “Horsemen of the Apocalypse,” which will be released on November 3, reads as follows: “Two months after the battle with Raven Rock, starving refugees overwhelm the Homestead and steal much of its winter food. As Jacq gives birth amid the chaos, Cain’s attempt to defend the vault ends in tragedy. With famine and disease spreading beyond the gates, Jeff is asked to confront a powerful leader who has cut the northern valley off from its crops.”

In Season 2, Episode 2, titled “In The Last Days, Heed God,” Jeff accepts a dangerous mission against Nathan Burnham and begins preparing for war. Rick and Tish travel south to expose Burnham and build resistance from within, while Jenna realizes Cain’s severe rule may destroy the community. Far from home, Bing’s attempt to protect a traveling family ends in devastating failure.

Homestead: The Series, Season 2, Episode 3, titled “Charlie Mike,” follows Evan as he leads Echo Squad through a ruined city to open a route into South Valley, but his unresolved guilt draws him into a fortified scavenger camp. Captured by its brutal leader, Evan must confront the worst moment of his military past and decide what kind of man he will become. Even if he escapes, the mission may leave him carrying a secret that could destroy a fragile new bond.

The official description for Homestead: The Series Season 2, Episode 4, “The Grindstone of Survival,” reads as follows: “As flu and famine tighten their grip, Jenna follows Claire beyond the Homestead and discovers an orphanage filled with sick mothers and freezing children. Cain tracks the supplies disappearing from storage and makes an example of a hungry resident. Meanwhile, Bing trains Burnham’s teenage recruits, Rick and Tish seek an ally in South Valley, and Jeff moves closer to building an unthinkable weapon.”

In Homestead: The Series Season 2, Episode 5, “Another Way,” Claire falls dangerously ill after caring for the orphanage, while Cain shuts down Jeff’s weapons operation and expels the Homestead’s refugees and Kindred residents. Jeff and Jenna lead the displaced families toward an abandoned Bible camp, creating a new community beyond Cain’s control. In the south, Evan and Tanya search for another way to rescue women and children from a fortified prison.”

Angel’s official synopsis for Homestead: The Series Season 2, Episode 6, which is titled “Exile,” reads as follows: “A rescue at the prison erupts into open battle, forcing Jeff to unleash the weapons he hoped not to use. As Burnham prepares to invade, Bing offers a dangerous plan to end the war before it begins. Thayer’s death throws the Kindred into crisis, a child is exposed to Jeff’s chemical weapon, and Jenna finally confronts Cain. Meanwhile, Evan struggles to tell Tanya the truth about her husband.”

Homestead: The Series Season 2, Episode 7, “A Heart of War,” which will be released on December 8, follows Burnham as he survives the assassination attempt and turns it into a call for holy war. As Rick and Tish face trial, Jeff prepares to defend the pass—but the northern army he was promised never arrives. Outnumbered and nearly out of options, he must choose between the sword and the shield, while Bing races to save the teenage soldiers Burnham has sent into a deadly flank attack.

In the eighth and final episode of Homestead: The Series Season 2, “A Heart of Peace,” Jeff’s mysterious mortar strike incapacitates Burnham’s army without killing it, creating a brief opening before the Southlanders recover. As Jeff and his allies enter the enemy camp unarmed, Rick, Tish, and Father Bren make a final attempt to expose Burnham before he can restart the war. With every life in the valley at stake, both sides must decide whether survival will be built on vengeance or peace.
