Is there a future for Outcast beyond the upcoming second season? It is expensive, and, because its U.S. airing comes more than a year after the season was filmed, the options on the cast have long lapsed. Still, Antholis said he had recently discussed Outcasts prospects with executive producer David Alpert. Were trying to give it its best platform, Antholis said. Ramping up our new slate of shows, and all the promotion thats going into it, hopefully, will give it a runway. As part of the effort, Cinemax will replay the first season of Outcast, which premiered in 2016, on Cinemax and make it available on HBO Go and HBO Now leading to the second season.
