Your favorite sapphic murder show has officially been renewed. You know we’re talking about The Hunting Wives. (Warning, season one spoilers ahead.)
That’s right, the campy series based on May Cobb’s best-selling novel is heading into season two, according to a Netflix press release. “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,” showrunner Rebecca Cutter said in a statement on September 12.
Netflix also shared the news with a dramatic Instagram Reel starring the show’s leading ladies, Brittany Snow and Malin Ackerman—and you really have watch it for yourselves. “Pack your boots and load your guns. We’re going back to Maple Brook for season two, baby,” Ackerman says after Snow promising to give up her “dignity” and “morals” for a chance to see her co-star again.
The FaceTime skit was very Sophie and Margo-coded, but don’t expect their characters to be in each other’s good graces when season two picks up. Here’s everything we know about The Hunting Wives season two.

*The Hunting Wives* on Netflix: The Soapy Drama’s Wild Ending, Explained
Who killed Abby? Will there be a season 2? Here’s what we know.
When will The Hunting Wives season 2 premiere?
No official date has been announced, though we’re hoping for a Summer 2026 release, given that the first season premiered on July 21. Netflix promises the show is “coming soon,” so hopefully they’ll keep their word.
What will season 2 be about?
At the end of the first season, Sophie killed Margo’s brother in self-defense after discovering her lover was Abby’s killer all along (more details on that over here). Clearly, season two is going to deal with the fallout of all that—but they may have to kiss and make up sooner than you’d think. Here’s the official season two logline, per Netflix:
At the start of Season 2, Sophie and Margo are on the outs. But soon enough, old secrets and new foes force them back together. As they play their dangerous games the question arises. Are they the hunters or the hunted?
For her part, Snow hopes that Sophie doesn’t forgive Margo too soon. “I would love nothing more than for Sophie to have a little bit more guidance and to not be manipulated as easily, because once you find out your girlfriend is a murderer, I think things change a little quickly,” she told Glamour in August. “But it does put Sophie and Margo on even ground in a lot of ways that I find very interesting to explore, because now Sophie is a murderer as well. I’m going to be interested to see how that dynamic plays out, and I’m hoping that she doesn’t forgive Margo and it takes a lot more to get them back together.”

‘We Wanted to Shock People’: Brittany Snow on Making *The Hunting Wives*
Brittany Snow opens up to *Glamour* about her hopes for a potential season 2, Sophie’s questionable decisions, and how she really feels about Graham.
Will there be a time jump?
Back in August, Cutter was thinking about hitting fast-forward, though she doesn’t want to jump too far ahead. “I think we’d do a little bit of a time jump—not a year, but a time,” Cutter told Variety. At the time, she was also unsure who might be next season’s killer or victim(s), telling the publication, “I don’t know whodunit yet or who got done!”
Who will be returning?
While a bunch of the characters from season one are dead, six of the show’s returning stars have been confirmed so far:
Brittany Snow, who plays Sophie O’Neil
Malin Akerman, who plays Margo Banks
Dermot Mulroney, who plays Jed Banks
Evan Jonigkeit, who plays Graham O’Neil
George Ferrier, who plays Brad
