Netflix seems to have struck gold with its new crime thriller starring Jason Bateman and Jude Law. Black Rabbit, which recently debuted on the platform, is currently the second most-watched series globally, with 6.6 million views this week.
Tackling themes of family loyalty and redemption, it takes viewers on a captivating ride. At the same time, it gives them plenty of reasons to stick around for all eight episodes. Question is: are there more installments on the way?
Black Rabbit Season 2 Release Date
At the time of writing, there’s no official news about a potential Black Rabbit season 2. The show is listed as a limited series on Netflix, and the first season ends on a fairly definitive note. As a result, more episodes are unlikely.
Still, you never know. If Netflix decides to renew, it wouldn’t be the first time a miniseries has been extended due to a great audience reaction. Beef was also supposed to be limited, and season 2 is just around the corner.
Black Rabbit Cast
- Jude Law as Jake Friedken
- Jason Bateman as Vince Friedken
- Cleopatra Coleman as Estelle
- Sope Dirisu as Wes
- Amaka Okafor as Roxie
- Troy Kotsur as Joe Mancuso
What Could Happen in Black Rabbit Season 2?
Black Rabbit revolves around Jake, the charismatic co-founder of an upscale restaurant in New York. He seems like the poster boy for ambition and success, until his older brother Vince unexpectedly resurfaces. Not only that, but he brings with him chaos and old wounds.
Turns out, Vince is indebted to ruthless loan sharks and haunted by a troubled past. While Jake tries to protect his business, he’s pulled deeper into criminal entanglements he thought he’d left behind.
As it progresses, Black Rabbit explores the volatile bond between brothers. How far would you go to preserve what you’ve built? And where exactly does family loyalty fall on your list of personal values?
Without going into spoiler territory, the show ends on a tragic note, and Jake finds himself on an uncertain path. Black Rabbit season 2 might explore what happens to him next, and whether he finds redemption or succumbs to his darker impulses in the aftermath.
It doesn’t look good, though. “On set, we all knew it was ending. Everyone felt like it was very precious and a closed box. It was a story that had a beginning and an end, and everyone was there to serve this tight but closed story,” creator Kate Susman told Esquire when asked about a sequel.
