Get ready to catch another wave of action as a new TV sequel series based on the 1991 cult classic Point Break is officially in the works. AMC Global Media is targeting a 2027 premiere for the project, which will continue the legacy of thrilling heists.
The series is set to pick up 25 years after the events of the original film. Rather than focusing on familiar characters, the narrative will center on an entirely new heist team. This crew will have ties to the infamous Ex-Presidents gang, promising a fresh take on the high-octane robberies that defined the original.
Dave Kalstein is attached to write and executive produce the series, with Shane Black set to direct and executive produce. Craig Silverstein will serve as creator and showrunner. Scripts for the first season are already in development, and production is expected to commence in Australia later this year.
AMC's strategy includes expanding its reach across both traditional TV and streaming platforms like AMC+, Shudder, and Acorn TV. By revitalizing recognizable brands such as Point Break, the network aims to attract both existing fans and new audiences to its diverse programming lineup.
