Sony LIV (OTTplay Premium) in India has officially launched the second season of the British thriller series Red Eye for viewers today, February 15, 2026. The new season, subtitled Crimson Icarus in some international markets, follows the popularity of the first part and moves the focus to a complex political web involving the US Embassy in London and a strange mid-flight tragedy. The first instalment focused on a risky extradition trip to Beijing.
What event triggers the new investigation in Red Eye Season 2?
The story begins at Heathrow Airport with the assassination of a US diplomatic courier. The investigation into the killing, which falls on Detective Sergeant Hana Li (Jing Lusi), swiftly leads her into a nightmare involving the American Embassy's jurisdiction. Season 2 goes beyond the confines of a commercial flight in its investigation into ground-based espionage and high-level government sabotage, in contrast to Season 1, which focused mostly on the airline industry.
The D300, an official aircraft of the British government, crashes under mysterious circumstances at the same time. The UK Defence Secretary and the embezzlement of funds from a military aircraft transaction are at the centre of a larger plot that emerges as the inquiry into these two apparently unrelated incidents progresses. Anxiety levels rise as characters learn that a murderer may be hiding among them at the embassy due to a "lockbox" scenario that ups the ante on tension.
Who are the key cast members joining the fray?
Joining the returning characters in this new crisis are several familiar faces from hit British shows. The role of Hana Li, played by Jing Lusi again, is that of a detective sergeant who, in addition to her professional responsibilities, has a personal vendetta against the head of security at the embassy. Clay Brody, the US Embassy's Regional Security Officer, is played by Martin Compston. His character's troubled past with Hana complicates the investigation.
In her role as MI5 Director-General Madeline Delaney, Lesley Sharp is back for another tense moment during the mid-flight incident. As Hana's half-sister and a journalist who offers crucial outside information, Jemma Moore's portrayal of Jess Li remains unchanged. The mystery's political lynchpins are Nicholas Rowe, who is the UK defence secretary, and Trevor White, who is the US ambassador.
Does Dr. Matthew Nolan return to Red Eye Season 2?
Richard Armitage, whose character Dr Matthew Nolan was the central figure of the previous conspiracy, makes a quick guest appearance, which fans of the first season will note.
Peter A. Dowling, the show's creator, has stated that a trilogy is in the works. The production crew recently announced that Season 3 is already in the planning phases in interviews that accompanied the UK debut earlier this year.
Where can viewers stream Red Eye Season 2 in India?
You can now watch Red Eye Season 2 in its entirety on Sony LIV (OTTplay Premium) in India. In the future season, Hana, Madeline, and Jess will likely reconvene for a final chapter that stays true to the series' characteristic "tight time frame" and high-tension vibe.
