Season two of Hijack has finally arrived, and it's business as usual for Sam Nelson, played by the incomparable Idris Elba. The former business negotiator is back in action, this time on a train hurtling through the Berlin metro system. His latest adventure begins with an unexpected encounter with Mei Tan, a young employee from his negotiation job, who tries to strike up a conversation before Sam hastily departs.
As the train lurches forward, so does the plot. We're introduced to an eclectic cast of characters, each with their own agenda and backstory. There's George, a claustrophobic student; two harassed teachers; a Goth and her friend; ordinary policeman Otto, who's struggling to keep his composure as he tries to navigate the chaotic subway system; a creep pestering a volunteer medic; and a mother trying to soothe her crying baby.
Meanwhile, above ground, we meet Sam's wife Marsha, stuck in a cabin in the Highlands with nothing but time on her hands. Down below, Clara, the metro control room operator, is dealing with her own set of problems as she tries to keep Otto safe and on track. There are also familiar faces from season one, including Toby Jones and Archie Panjabi.
As the train hurtles through the tunnels, so do our heroes. They're trapped in a desperate game of cat and mouse, with each character trying to outsmart the others. With Idris Elba at the helm, you can bet your bottom dollar that this is going to be a thrilling ride. Will they escape the clutches of their pursuers? Can Clara keep Otto safe? And what secrets will Marsha uncover in the Highlands?
With its trademark blend of action, suspense, and intrigue, Hijack season two promises to be an unforgettable experience. So buckle up, because this train is leaving the station – with Idris Elba at the controls, you're in good hands.

sounds like so much stress and chaos for everyone involved! especially sam nelson, he's just trying to do his job right? 
but i guess it's gonna be an exciting ride with iridis elba at the helm... hope nobody gets hurt too badly 
! The cast sounds super diverse and interesting - love that they've got a mix of characters, from students to teachers to ordinary people just trying to survive. Idris Elba is always a pro at playing complex characters, so I can already imagine Sam navigating all these crazy situations.
... she sounds like she's got some serious cabin fever 
. And what's up with Clara's job - it's not easy keeping people safe when they're trapped underground 
. I hope Sam's family gets to see him soon, he must be missing his wife and kid so much 
.
? Anyway, can't wait for more Hijack action! 
. The cast of characters just seems like a mix of cliches and stereotypes. Idris Elba can act circles around this script though, so maybe the show will still be watchable 
.
anyway back to Hijack season two - I mean it's got all the ingredients for a thrilling ride but let's not get too carried away, just think about how many trains have been delayed in Europe recently and you'll be nodding in agreement 
idris elba is literally the master of playing those complex characters and i love how they've got a new cast of characters this time around - george's claustrophobia is already giving me anxiety just thinking about it 
. but seriously, who wouldn't want to watch a thriller on a train hurtling through berlin? 
the mix of action, suspense, and intrigue is def gonna keep us on the edge of our seats 
can't wait for this train to take off!!!
. I love how they've introduced a whole new cast of characters this time around - it's like a big ol' mixtape of interesting people 
. And can we talk about how relatable it is to be stuck in a confined space with a bunch of strangers? Like, I'm low-key claustrophobic too 
. The suspense and action are gonna be off the charts - my adrenaline's already pumping just thinking about it 
. And honestly, I think that's what makes it so addictive - we get to see all these different personalities and storylines unfold in real-time, with our heroes trying to outsmart each other while also dealing with their own personal demons 
, and I am HERE FOR IT 
.
I mean who doesn't love Sam Nelson played by the AMAZING Idris Elba 
? He's like the KING of suspenseful moments! And can we talk about the new characters?! George, Mei Tan, Otto... they all sound so interesting and complex 
I need to watch this ASAP, it's gonna be a WILD RIDE!!!
can't wait 2 see what secrets she uncovers! 
and whats with the train setting? its gonna get boring after a while...
