Well, this is good news: Acorn TV isn\u2019t making fans wait long to find out if there will be any resolution to the major cliffhanger of\u00a0Irish Blood<\/a><\/em>\u2018s first season.<\/p>\n On Monday, September 8, the same day the finale began streaming, the series, which stars and is executive produced by Alicia Silverstone<\/a>, was renewed for Season 2. Irish Blood<\/em> is the #1 series in Acorn TV\u2019s history in both viewership and subscriber acquisition (based on U.S. viewership across its first three weeks).<\/p>\n \u201cIt means so much to continue this journey with a character I love. Thank you to everyone who\u2019s watched and supported, and to the phenomenal Irish crew and actors who made working there such a joy, and to the entire team across this series,\u201d Silverstone said in a statement. \u201cWe\u2019re so happy to have found a captive audience who enjoyed the ride from beginning to end.\u201d<\/p>\n Added Rob Fox, executive vice president of production for AMC Networks, who oversees programming for Acorn TV, \u201cThanks to Alicia Silverstone and everything she has brought to this series, both as a star and executive producer, from the moment it was just an idea all the way to it becoming the most successful series in the history of Acorn TV. Thanks also to our entire cast, writers, producers and partners at Shaftesbury and Deadpan Pictures for everything that went into a remarkable first season of Irish Blood<\/em>. Acorn TV is the best streaming service in the world for thrilling crime dramas and brilliant mysteries. We are so grateful for the way our subscribers have embraced this series and can\u2019t wait to get started on season two.\u201d<\/p>\n That has yet to be announced. But production on the new season in Ireland is slated to begin in early 2026.<\/p>\n Just like Season 1, it will consist of six, hour-long episodes.<\/p>\n In Season 1, Fiona Fox (Silverstone) heads to Ireland only to learn that her estranged father (Jason O\u2019Mara<\/a>) has been killed. Throughout the season, she learns more about the family she didn\u2019t know previously. And while she does get answers about her father\u2019s death, his dealings ended up putting her mother (Wendy Crewson<\/a>) in some serious trouble.<\/p>\n Season 2 will once again be set in Ireland. Beyond that, no details have been revealed. But when TV Insider spoke with Alicia Silverstone<\/a> about the finale ahead of the premiere, she did want to stay in Ireland and explore what that would mean for her character.<\/p>\n \u201cShe\u2019s been there a while now, so what does this all mean and what\u2019s going to happen and where does she belong? Because her world has been turned upside down and now she has all this family here that she wants to get to know,\u201d she said. \u201cIt makes her feel closer to her dad. She\u2019s felt so alienated and so isolated, and she\u2019s been so cold in her experience with her relationships, and now she has her mom there. So that\u2019s tricky. And she loves her assistant, Tess [Djouliet Amara], who I think is still fantastic. But that\u2019s a real torn situation.\u201d<\/p>\n She added, \u201cThere\u2019s so much to explore. I think we\u2019re going to go deeper into the emotional, the feelings of it all, and allow ourselves to slow down on that.\u201d<\/p>\n Joining Silverstone in the Season 1 cast were\u00a0Jason O\u2019Mara, Wendy Crewson, Dearbhla Molloy, Simone Kirby<\/a>, Ruth Codd<\/a>, and Leonardo Taiwo<\/a>. A Season 2 cast has yet to be revealed.<\/p>\n Irish Blood<\/em> is executive produced by Christina Jennings, Scott Garvie, Paul Donovan, Ailish McElmeel, Christina Ray, Aaron Martin, Silverstone, and Molly McGlynn, who also directs Season 1. The series is produced by Shaftesbury and Deadpan Pictures, in association with AMC Studios and F\u00eds \u00c9ireann \/Screen Ireland and with the support of incentives for the Irish Film Industry provided by the government of Ireland, the Canadian Film or Video Production Tax Credit and Ontario Creates.<\/p>\n Not yet.<\/p>\nWhen will\u00a0Irish Blood<\/em> Season 2 premiere?<\/h2>\n
