The Truce Is Over in Ash vs Evil Dead: Sn 2 First Look
Jacksonville proves not to be all Ash cracked it up to be in Ash vs Evil Dead: Season 2.
This exclusive extended sneak peek at the Starz series previews how Ash's seemingly perfect ending in Season 1 (that was the most disastrous possible ending for the rest of the world) sets him up to return to his home town of Elk Grove, Mich.
Season 2 will force Ash and Ruby (Lucy Lawless) into an unlikely partnership as her demon spawn children grow to become even more terrifying demon spawn adults. Meanwhile, Ash returns home to rekindle his relationship with his father Brock Williams (Lee Major).
"It's a far bigger and more ambitious season than Season 1," executive producer Rob Tapert told IGN about Season 2. "From a production point of view, the stories are much bigger, the cast is larger. It's still Evil Dead-like, but the canvas is broader this season. So I think that the writers have posited some really good things, and we've been able to embellish this season, what was in the scripts, and make a really wild, visceral ride for the audience."

Arrow: The Complete Fourth Season is available on Blu-ray and DVD on Tuesday, August 30th. Special features include additional deleted scenes, a gag reel, Arrows 2015 San Diego Comic-Con panel and the featurettes "Star Crossed Hawks: The Hunt for Vandal Savage" and "Smooth Criminal: The Damien Darhk Story."
