So, when the second season is coming? What is the plot? Who would come back to reprise their roles? Keep reading to know further details.

American Rust Plot and Cast

The ending of season one is not the usual cliche in most films: a cliffhanger that makes you long for the second season. Season two could address Billy the Pose’s fate and how Lee moves on now that Henry is supposedly dead. There is also a possibility that Del could reunite with Isaac and have a case built on all the murders he has executed.

American Rust has been acted by a talented actor, which we hope to see in the next season once it is renewed. Jeff Daniels, who acts as Del Harris, is famous for featuring in “Ragtime” (1981). He is smitten by Maura Tierney (Grace Poe) and helps her cover for her son Billy’s (Alex Neustaedter) murders.

David Alvarez (Isaac English), who is also Billy’s best friend, has a sick dad Bill Camp (Henry English), and an older sister Julia Mayorga (Lee English). Other supporting characters of this series are; Mark Pellegrino (Virgil), Rob Yang (Steve Park), Namir Smallwood (Sherrif Deluca), Jon Barclay (Aaron), and Emily Davis (Sue Herlitz), and Dallas Roberts.
