AUSTRALIAN HULU ORIGINAL SCRIPTED DRAMA SERIES "THE ARTFUL DODGER" IS BACK FOR SEASON 2

· All-star cast including Thomas Brodie-Sangster, David Thewlis and Maia Mitchell returning for a new season of the much-loved drama with a twist.

· The eight-episode Season 2 has an all-star returning cast including Thomas Brodie-Sangster (The Queen's Gambit, Wolf Hall) as Jack Dawkins aka The Artful Dodger, David Thewlis (Landscapers, Fargo) as Fagin, and Maia Mitchell (Good Trouble, Never Goin' Back) as Lady Belle Fox. They team up with a full ensemble of Australian and New Zealand cast and several new faces in exciting cameos.

· Series co-creator James McNamara (The Artful Dodger, The Outrageous True Story of Milky Moor) is leading the writing team with Kate Mulvany (Summer Love, Upright), Dan Knight (The Artful Dodger, Irreverent), and Miranda Tapsell (Top End Bub, Top End Wedding).

· Ben Young (The Twelve, Clickbait) and Gracie Otto (The Artful Dodger, Ladies in Black, Heartbreak High) serve as Directors with Jeffrey Walker (The Artful Dodger, The Portable Door, Modern Family) consulting.

· To be filmed in 2025 at the historic Callan Park in Sydney, Season 2 will pick up where the heart's desires of Dodger, Fagin and Lady Belle left off, promising more cunning thievery, snappy humor, life-and-death surgeries, and romance with a twist.

· The Artful Dodger is an irreverent follow-up to Charles Dickens' "Oliver Twist" exploring his adult double life in the far-flung penal colony of Port Victory, Australia. It is a tale of reinvention, betrayal, redemption, and love with a twist. Jack Dawkins is The Artful Dodger, whose fast, pickpocketing fingers have turned into the skilled hands of a surgeon. Lady Belle, the Governor's daughter, is a brilliant and captivating woman who captures Dodger's heart and is determined to make history as the first female surgeon. In Season 1, Dodger is torn between the promise of an impossible love in high society, and the instinctive temptation of the criminal underworld he secretly craves. His past returns to haunt him with the arrival of Fagin, luring him back for one last heist.

· The Artful Dodger Season 2 is a co-production with Sony Pictures Television's Curio Pictures. Curio Pictures' Jo Porter and Rachel Gardner are Executive Producer/Producers, with James McNamara as Executive Producer and Cameron Welsh (Foundation, Krypton) as Series Producer. The series was co-created by James McNamara, David Maher and David Taylor.

· NSW State Government is supporting Season 2 through Screen NSW's Made In NSW fund and the PDV Rebate.
