Is Murderbot Season 2 canceled or renewed by Apple TV+?
As of now, the showrunners have neither canceled nor renewed Murderbot for Season 2, but they are discussing its possibilities.
According to the latest information, Apple TV+ has not yet made any announcement regarding the greenlighting of Murderbot Season 2. However, there remains a chance for its return for a second season, given that the sci-fi series has received favorable reviews since it first premiered. In the meantime, viewers will need to be patient and keep an eye out.
In an interview with NPN, showrunners the Weitz brothers shared their thoughts on its future. They didn’t say it outright, but Paul Weitz hinted that there could be a Season 2 in the works, which would require some more time. Before a renewal takes place, they would like to have a conversation with Martha Wells, the author of the Murderbot Diaries.
“We don’t want to jinx it. We’re a long distance between getting to do this and then getting to do another season even,” the co-showrunner stated. “We would talk with Martha Wells, we might end up using shuffling the deck a little bit, using some stuff from, say, the 3rd or 4th book with stuff from the second book, but we don’t know yet.”
The story of Murderbot unfolds in a high-tech future. A rogue security robot secretly gains free will, hacks its programming, and names itself “Murderbot.” Despite his craving for solitude, he spends most of his time binge-watching soap operas. The cyborg eventually finds himself in the role of protector of a group of idealistic scientists on dangerous missions across the planet.
The series’ cast features Alexander Skarsgård, Noma Dumezweni, Tattiawna Jones, Tamara Podemski, Sabrina Wu, and others.
