The FX channel will start airing the continuation of the series "Legion" from the 1st episode of the 2nd season, which will be on TV at the beginning of 2018. Noah Hawley, known for the legendary show "Fargo" and the remake of no less popular film, is responsible for creating the show.
Actions of the show are based on the comics of the Marvel Television Universe, taking a separate character from the "X-Men" storyline. The premiere of the previous eight-episode season took place on February 8, 2017. In Russia, the cable channel FOX is responsible for the show's broadcast. The show was filmed in Vancouver, where the majority of current multi-episode projects are traditionally filmed.

The story continues around David Haller, who recently believed himself to be a crazy schizophrenic. As it turns out, he is one of the strongest Earth mutants, and his visions and voices in his head are real. The character's abilities surpass all existing competitors, but the inability to use them is playing a cruel joke on the main character. He is hunted by The Eye, Division Three, and other mutants who have taken the opposite side of the law. Only with the help of "Summerland" can David understand his own power, visions, and fractured personality and restore order in the world.
As expected, the director and producer of the project, Hawley, cast some of the actors who worked with him on "Fargo" a few years ago in key roles of the series: Mackenzie Gray (The Eye), Jean Smart (Melanie Bird), and Rachel Keller (Syd). The role of Haller, on the other hand, went to the star of the series "Downton Abbey," Dan Stevens, who lost several pounds for the new role.
The series "Legion" is intended for 8 episodes in both the first and second seasons, each lasting up to an hour. In Russia, the show is aired on FOX on Thursdays. The creators of the show have made every effort to focus on the character of the main protagonist, D. Haller. The new adaptation of the Marvel comics will appeal not only to fans of fantasy and superhero projects but also to those who enjoy watching truly high-quality acting.
