Reshet 13 has greenlit the second season of "Red Skies" ahead of the Israeli premier, set for mid-June.“’Red Skies’ tells a gripping story, leaving the viewer totally immersed from the first moment. We at Reshet 13 are fully confident in the success of the show and its creators which is why we’ve green lighted an additional season,” Meir Kotler, Deputy CEO said.

"Red Skies" is created by Ron Leshem, Daniel Shinar, Daniel Amsel, Amit Cohen and the director Alon Zingman. “I’d also like to acknowledge our co-creator Daniel Shinar, author of the novel Red Skies and former Israeli Intelligence Officer, whom without his novel none of this would have been possible,"Leshem said. "Daniel is becoming “The Tom Clancy of Israel’” and I can't wait to get started on the 2nd season.”

The eight-part drama series based on the best-selling Israeli novel of the same name and inspired by true events, is produced by veteran producer Yoav Gross, along with Len Blavatnik and Danny Cohen, of Access Entertainment, who serve as Executive Producers. “’Red Skies’ is a captivating story - brought to life by a brilliant cast and crew - which embodies the type of premium-quality production Access Entertainment is proud to invest in. We are delighted the show, which tells a story of love and loss on both sides of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, has been greenlit for a second season,” stated Cohen, president of Access Entertainment.

“Red Skies is now acknowledged as the biggest drama ever to be produced by an Israeli network,” Leshem said. “Alongside Arab and Jewish filmmakers and cast, we are bringing to screen, for the first time, the secret work of Israel’s SIGINT unit, as well as the unique story of a medical student from Jerusalem who turns into a militia leader. I could not be prouder than to making this announcement today. From the outset, the team and I wanted to create and produce a series unraveling the extraordinary story of friendship, love and conflicting loyalties, but that would also bring the Second Intifada to the screen for the first time, an issue even more relevant today, making the show a unique event series.”
