'The Hunting Wives' Renewed for Season 2 on Netflix
Netflix has announced the renewal of its hit series, 'The Hunting Wives', for a second season. The show, starring Brittany Snow and Malin Akerman, will return to the fictional town of Maple Brook for more drama, secrets, and twisted relationships. Season 2 will be a Netflix-branded series, streaming globally in most territories.
Return to Maple Brook: What to Expect
Season 2 of 'The Hunting Wives' promises to continue the storyline from the first season with an original script. The central characters, Sophie (Brittany Snow) and Margo (Malin Akerman), find themselves at odds, but old secrets and new enemies will force them to reunite. The central question remains: are they the hunters, or the hunted?
"I'm so excited to write these amazing characters again, and I can't wait to take the audience on another sexy, twisted, batshit crazy ride through Maple Brook," - Rebecca Cutter, Executive Producer.
The Cast and Crew
Much of the original cast is expected to return for season 2, including Brittany Snow as Sophie, Malin Akerman as Margo, Jaime Ray Newman as Callie, Dermot Mulroney as Jed Banks, Evan Jonigkeit as Graham, and George Ferrier as Brad. The series is created by Rebecca Cutter and produced by Lionsgate and 3 Arts Entertainment.
Season 1 Success and Global Reach
'The Hunting Wives' Season 1 was a significant hit for Netflix, spending five weeks in the global English Top 10 TV List and amassing over 20 million views, despite initially being available only in the U.S. The show's success also boosted sales of May Cobb’s 2021 novel, on which the series is based.
Renewal Details and International Availability
Season 2 will consist of 8 episodes and will be available on Netflix in all markets except Canada, Australia, and two European territories. The renewal required Lionsgate to rework existing international distribution deals, ensuring that Netflix has global rights for the series. The first season is also expected to become available on Netflix exclusively in most countries.
