Amazon Prime Video today announced its original dramatic series Sneaky Pete will return for its second season on Friday, March 9, with the debut of a new trailer for Season 2. The critically acclaimed Prime Original, a co-production with Sony Pictures Television Studios, revolves around a con man, Marius (Giovanni Ribisi, Avatar) who left prison only to find himself hunted by the vicious gangster he once robbed. With nowhere else to turn, he took cover from his past by assuming the identity of his cellmate Pete, "reuniting" with Pete's estranged family.

In the new season, Marius is on the verge of starting fresh, when two thugs, believing he is Pete, threaten to kill the family unless he takes them to Pete's estranged mother Maggie (Jane Adams, Showtime's Twin Peaks) and the millions she stole from their mysterious employer. Now Marius must tread a dangerous line to find the elusive Maggie, protect the family, and keep up the Pete con, all while finagling a way to ditch the thugs and keep the money for himself. The trailer also reveals that the real Pete (Ethan Embry) has managed to escape from prison, by accident, which could mean he's heading home. Here's what Sharon Tal Yguado, Head of Scripted Series, Amazon Studios, had to say in her statement.

"After the tremendous critical and customer reception in its first season, we're excited to debut another season of Sneaky Pete. Graham and his team have crafted a second season that really raises the stakes for Marius and everyone involved."
