August 13, 2024 - Paramount+ Australia today debuted the official trailer for the eagerly awaited new season of its original series Last King of The Cross, with the first two exhilarating episodes premiering exclusively on the platform on Friday, 30 August. Episodes will then drop weekly, as the fictional series follows the character of John Ibrahim (Lincoln Younes) on his mission to capture Oxford Street’s late-night empire.

Internationally, Last King of The Cross season two will also premiere on Paramount+ Canada on August 30.

Having fled to Ibiza to escape his past, John finally returns to Sydney – only to find it’s not quite how he left it. The two younger Ibrahim brothers, Fadi (Alex Kaan) and Michael (Dave Hoey) have grown up, while older brother Sam (Claude Jabbour) remains in prison – steadily growing a following as he attempts to establish his own Black Flags chapter.

With Kings Cross all but dead in the wake of the Royal Commission, John tails a group of colourful partygoers to Oxford Street – the seductive, ecstasy-fuelled new centre of Sydney nightlife. John wants in, but it’s not going to be easy. Nightclub owner Ray Kinnock (Naveen Andrews – Lost, The Dropout, The English Patient)employs every trick in his well-connected arsenal to challenge John’s crown, while Dean Taylor (Luke Arnold)and Benny Vasquez (Matuse) emerge as new threats.

With Senior Sergeant Elizabeth Doyle (Tess Haubrich) following John’s every move and his own brothers causing chaos, John’s separate worlds of business, family, and crime, will collide across a spectacular and explosive eight episodes.

Last King of The Cross is a HELIUM Pictures production for Paramount+ Australia with Cineflix Rights as the exclusive international distribution partner. The series has received major production investment from Paramount Australia in association with Screen Australia and is financed with support from Screen NSW through the Made in NSW fund and Fulcrum Media Finance. Post, digital and visual effects supported by Screen NSW and Screen Queensland.

Last King of The Cross season two joins a host of the Paramount+ Australian Originals currently streaming on Paramount+, including Fake, Top Gear Australia, NCIS: Sydney, with The Inspired Unemployed (Impractical) Jokers season two streaming soon.
