"Strike Back" Season 2 will return on Cinemax in 2012.

"Strike Back" (Cinemax TV show) is a high-octane action series focusing on a charismatic former U.S. Special Forces operative who teams up with a British military unit to stop an international terrorist group.

The timely, fast-paced series mixes suspense, action and drama, spanning the globe from India to South Africa, from England to Chechnya. The team that tracks the terrorists is Section 20, an elite military black ops unit within the British government that focuses on high-risk, top-priority targets. When one of their own is captured and held hostage, the group enlists the help of Damien Scott (Sullivan Stapleton), a former Delta Force operative who is familiar with the terrorists.

Although he has good instincts and skills, his cocky style is often at odds with the more formal team, especially the more by-the-book Sgt. Michael Stonebridge (Philip Winchester). Team leader Col. Eleanor Grant (Amanda Mealing) is a smart, tough military leader who is skilled with a gun and diplomacy, but knows when to break a rule or two.



The "Strike Back" cast includes Sullivan Stapleton ("Animal Kingdom") and Philip Winchester ("Crusoe") star, with Amanda Mealing ("Holby City"), Eva Birthistle ("Silent Witness"), Jimi Mistry ("Blood Diamond"), Rhashan Stone ("Episodes") and Richard Armitage ("The Hobbit").

The "Strike Back" TV show is produced by British Sky Broadcasting Limited and Left Bank Pictures. Executive producers are Andy Harries (HBO¼s "Longford") for Left Bank; Elaine Pyke ("The Runaway") for Sky; co-executive producers are Dan Percival (HBO¼s "Dirty War") and Frank Spotnitz ("The X-Files"). Directors for the series are Dan Percival (HBO¼s "Dirty War"), Alex Holmes (HBO¼s "House of Saddam"), Bill Eagles ("Fringe") and Paul Wilmshurst ("Law & Order: UK"). Writers are Frank Spotnitz, Richard Zadjlic ("EastEnders"), Tony Saint ("Margaret Thatcher: The Long Walk to Finchley") and Simon Burke ("Persuasion"). The show marks the first time HBO/Cinemax has worked with UK broadcaster Sky to produce an original series.
