Narcos was a surprise success for Netflix last year. Wagner Moura’s mesmeric portayal of Pablo Escobar was the show’s guiding light in the first season, and the episodes pick up right where the first ten left off.

The new trailer promises an escalation in every sense. Pedro Pascal and Boyd Holbrook return as the life (and ‘death’) of Escobar is explored as the drug circles, and their violent ripples, expand.

Narcos chronicles the gripping real-life stories of the infamous drug kingpins of the late 1980s and the corroborative efforts of law enforcement to meet them head on in brutal, bloody conflict. Its gritty storytelling details the many, often-conflicting forces – legal, political, police, military and civilian – that clash in the effort to control cocaine, one of the world’s most valuable commodities.

The next ten episodes arrive on Netflix on the 2nd of September. Take a look at the trailer below,
