Heels Pins Down Season 2 Premiere Date
The long wait for Heels Season 2 is almost over.
Heels returns to the ring for season two on Friday, July 28 at midnight (ET) on the STARZ app.
Starring Stephen Amell (Arrow) and Alexander Ludwig (Vikings), the gripping small-town drama series based on a wrestling league in rural Georgia will also debut on linear on STARZ at 10:00 PM ET/PT in the U.S. and Canada on Friday, July 28, 2023.
Heels is a story about the men and women who chase their dreams in the world of small-town pro wrestling.
Set in a close-knit Georgia community, it follows a family-owned wrestling promotion as two brothers and rivals, Jack Spade (Amell) and Ace Spade (Ludwig), are at war over their late father's legacy while working to find their identity and their individual versions of success.
Heel is a common wrestling term used to describe the antagonist or villain in the ring, however, the line between hero and heel is much less clear for this sibling rivalry outside of the ring.
"Season two begins after a spectacular showing at the South Georgia State Fair, and the Duffy Wrestling League's popularity is suddenly on the upswing," the logline teases.
"Hoping to seize the opportunity, Jack and his cohorts prepare for a possible business deal with a new streaming service that may propel them onto a national stage."
"But the past and its tragedies threaten to upset everything when Ace leaves Duffy and the Dome in his rearview, meanwhile rival promotion Florida Wrestling Dystopia's vengeful frontman Gully comes calling."
