Cinemax Debuts STRIKE BACK Season Two Poster

Strike Back is the Cinemax scripted thriller series which takes storylines from today's headlines. Viewers join two members of Section 20, a top-secret intelligence agency, as they take on exciting and mysterious cases around the globe.

STRIKE BACK tells the suspenseful story of a charismatic former U.S. Special Forces operative who joins with a stealth British military unit when a resourceful international terrorist group plots a major attack. Researched by the creators of the series and aided by consultants, the action-packed drama is rooted in the field of counter-terrorism and set against the backdrop of timely global issues.
