Last night’s highly anticipated Season 4 premiere of the critically acclaimed AMC/AMC+ noir drama Dark Winds featured a surprise cameo from iconic screen actress Linda Hamilton. The legendary Emmy® and Golden Globe®-nominated actress, known for her beloved role in Terminator, joined Zahn McClarnon’s Lt. Joe Leaphorn and A Martinez’s Chief Gordo Sena for a scene as Gordo’s wife Barbara Sena who is grappling with memory loss. Season 4 continues with all-new episodes weekly on Sundays at 9pm ET/PT, exclusively on AMC and AMC+.

Executive produced by Robert Redford and George R.R. Martin and boasting a 100% Rotten Tomatoes score for each of its four seasons, Dark Winds stars McClarnon as Lt. Joe Leaphorn alongside Kiowa Gordon (The Red Road, Roswell, New Mexico) as Jim Chee, Jessica Matten (Rez Ball, Tribal, Burden of Truth) as Bernadette Manuelito, and Deanna Allison (Accused, Edge of America) as Emma Leaphorn. Viewers can catch-up on the captivating first three seasons of Dark Winds on AMC+ and via The AMC Collection on Netflix.

The series’ gripping fourth season focuses on the search for a missing Navajo girl, which takes Leaphorn, Chee and Manuelito from the safety of Navajo Nation to the gritty terrain of 1970s Los Angeles in a race against the clock to save her from an obsessive killer with ties to organized crime. The new season’s second episode marks the television directorial debut of the multihyphenate McClarnon.
