MUMBAI: The prodigy of Steven Soderbergh’s historic medical drama The Knick returns for second season. The Knick is all set to premiere in India within just 24 hours of its US premiere – on 17 October at 9 pm exclusively on HBO Defined 100 per cent ad-free.
Season two features the Knickerbocker hospital facing a disruption, as Dr. John Thackery’s absence due to his hospitalisation for cocaine addiction. A scarcity of affluent patients and financial missteps leads the board’s decision to shutter The Knickerbocker Hospital in favour of a new building uptown.
Based on factual information, rich in period detail, this season will capture the era’s unique zeitgeist, with huge strides in technology transformed medicine and treatments that were once thought impossible becoming a commonplace.
Starring Clive Owen, it takes us back into intense world of Dr. Thackery. It is Steven Soderbergh’s gripping and greatest sustained display of rich directorial ten-episode virtuosity.
