Nearly everyone knows the story of David and Goliath.
What makes the dramatic series House of David uniquely engaging is the way executive producers Jon Erwin and Jon Gunn modernize the 3,000-year-old tale.
Season 2 of House of David is streaming now globally on Prime Video and on Wonder Project through a Prime Video Subscription in the United States.
“Most people don’t know the full depth of David’s journey,” explained Erwin, creator of House of David, who also directed and co-wrote a number of episodes. “His rise to greatness didn’t happen overnight. His story is about more than just a young boy facing down a giant. It’s about the journey of becoming who you were always meant to be.”

What is the plot of Season 2 of ‘House of David’?
Season 2 of House of David opens with David (Michael Iskander) mortally defeating Goliath (Martyn Ford of F9: The Fast Saga) and ignites a battle. But even after the brutal combat ends, interpersonal wars are waged as families fracture, forbidden loves spark, alliances shift, and faith and power collide in a struggle that will decide Israel’s future.
Veteran character actor Stephen Lang, who is best known for his roles in James Cameron’s Avatar films and the horror hit Don’t Breathe, is back in Season 2 as Samuel, a venerated prophet in Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. He is pious but doesn’t hesitate to unleash violent wrath upon the wicked. Commanded by God, Samuel informed King Saul (Ali Suliman) that his days as sovereign were coming to an inevitable end, and told David he would be King Saul's successor, without the king's knowledge.

David, meanwhile, rises from shepherd to warrior, caught between loyalty and destiny, as the Iron Age transforms warfare.
“Samuel is very instrumental in contouring David’s consciousness, his capabilities, and his confidence,” Lang said of his character. “He helps him to also understand the voice of the Lord manifests in many different ways and to be open to hear and see. That’s what a mentor does and that’s what Samuel does for David.”
Returning cast members for Season 2 include:
- Ayelet Zurer (Losing Alice and Angels & Demons) as King Saul's wife Queen Ahinoam
- Indy Lewis (Industry) as Mychal, King Saul's youngest daughter and the woman David loves
- Oded Fehr (Star Trek: Discovery) as Abner, King Saul's trusted lieutenant
- Yali Topol Margalith as King Saul's eldest daughter, Mirab
- Louis Ferreira (S.W.A.T.) as Jesse, David's father
What sets this series apart from other dramas?
House of David draws comparisons to serialized epics such as Star Wars and The Lord of the Rings because of its sweeping cinematography, action, costumes, and foreign setting. The twist, Erwin said, is that David’s biblical journey inspired those beloved works of fiction.
“David is perhaps the first and certainly the most famous ‘hero’s journey,’” Erwin shared. “He is one of the archetypes that inspired the likes of Luke Skywalker, Frodo Baggins, and Harry Potter: outcasts called to greatness, only to find themselves thrust into situations that push them beyond their limits.”
