Lost in Space Season 2 Release Date, Cast, News, and More

Lost in Space Season 2 has officially been confirmed by Netflix.

Lost in Space Season 1’s promising, cliffhanger conclusion indicates that the producers are confident there will be a Lost in Space Season 2. Series co-creators Burk Sharpless and Matt Sazama confirmed to IndieWire that they are working on season two and have some “wild’ ideas.

“We are working on scripts and hoping that, if we get a green light, we’re ready to go,” Sazama said. “We’ve had a lot of thoughts about it, and hopefully, if everyone watches it, we’ll get to see more adventures of the Robinsons, because we do have some crazy stuff planned out that we really hope we get to film.”

Lost in Space Season 2 Release Date

Netflix has yet to announce a Lost in Space Season 2 release date. Season one debuted on April 13th, 2018. Another April release date for season two would make sense unless Netflix decides to expand the scope of the show or number of episodes. The release date may ultimately depend on how viewers respond to season one and whether Netflix thinks it can go even bigger.

Lost in Space Season 2 Cast

Lost in Space Season 2’s cast could either be much bigger or much smaller. Notably, Lost in Space Season 1 ends with a huge paring down of the cast so that only the eight main characters from the original series remain: John, Maureen, Judy, Penny, Will, Smith, Don, and the Robot. Characters like Victor, Vijay, the Watanabes, and more are back home on aboard the Resolute and on their way to Alpha Centauri.

With the absence of those supporting characters though, the show has a unique opportunity to make its cast even bigger. The Robinsons, Smith, and West are now on the outskirts of an alien world. Will this mean more CGI/make-up characters? One can only hope so.

Though a report from The Hashtag Show suggests that some honest-to-goodness human being characters will be joining the show in Season 2. The first new addition will be Ava, a 20-40-something mechanic supervisor. She’s a serious individual with little time for Don West’s nonsense. Commander Jiang will also be introduced in Season 2. She is the commander aboard the Resolute and is described as capable, stalwart, and…uh, resolute? Looks like the Robinsons won’t be lost that much longer.
