Season 2 of Shadow and Bone is a highly anticipated Netflix release. The blockbuster fantasy drama’s sophomore season will immerse viewers in events that correspond to the narrative of Siege and Storm, the second novel in Leigh Bardugo’s Shadow and Bone trilogy.
This Netflix original swept the Internet by storm last year, as book-to-screen adaptations of best-selling series often do. Long-time and new fans alike fell in love with Alina Starkov, the Dregs, and, of course, the evil Darkling.
When Shadow and Bone were revived in 2021, many wondered if Nikolai and Wylan would be introduced. Though we had to wait until 2022 for casting news, we now know who will be playing fan favourites, as well as some new additions.
Is there a release date for Shadow and Bone season 2?
The sophomore season’s release date has yet to be confirmed official, but
according to IMDb, season 2 is set to premiere in 2022.
Is Season 2 of Shadow and Boneset to premiere in 2022?
Despite what IMDb says, we’re hesitant to declare that season 2 will be released this year. Post-production on a series can often take six to eight months, and when special effects are considered, the post-production window is extended.
Given some of the characters’ abilities and the fantasy universe they live in, post-production for Shadow and Bone season 2 is likely to take longer than usual. Suppose filming concludes in July, just a few months before December. We doubt the second season will be ready in time for Netflix to release it at the end of the year.
The Netflix original’s sophomore season will likely premiere in early 2023, and perhaps even in April, the month of the series’ debut anniversary. We’ll keep you updated on fresh Shadow and Bone information and coverage.
