Here’s all The Winter King Season 2 release date information we know so far and all the details on when it is coming out.

Is there a The Winter King Season 2 release date?

The Winter King Season 2 does not have an official release date, but it will likely be announced soon.

As of October 2023, The Winter King has not been renewed for season 2. However, the inaugural season of The Winter King is based on the namesake book, which is the first entry in The Warlord Chronicles or The Warlord Trilogy by the renowned historical fiction author Bernard Cornwell. So, at least two more seasons can be developed from the remaining two books: Enemy of God and Excalibur,

In an interview with UPI, executive producer Julie Gardner spoke about the plans they have with the series. “We were very fortunate to have the rights to Bernard Cornwell’s trilogy of novels. So, that was one of the guiding principles to what we wanted to adapt,” she said.

Gardner also offered hints on what might be in store for the audience in the prospective second season. “But, also, I had loved — all of us had loved — the Arthurian legend told through all the iterations, through decades and generations beyond,” she explained. “We were trying to peer beyond the icon. When you hear Arthur or Guinevere — or, eventually, in Season 2, Lancelot — these are iconic names, but you want to get behind them and characterize them and get to their humanity.”

As mentioned above, season 1 premiered in the US on August 20, 2023. The networks and the producers are likely waiting to see how the show performs in the US as well as in the UK, where season 1 hasn’t been released yet, to make a decision about the sophomore season.

The cast includes Iain De Caestecker as Arthur Pendragon, Stuart Campbell as Derfel Cadarn, Ellie James as Nimue, Steven Elder as Bishop Bedwin, Simon Merrells as Gundleus, Ken Nwosu as Sagramor, Olumide Olorunfemi as Lunette, Billy Postlethwaite as Cadwys, Daniel Ings as Owain, Nathaniel Martello-White as Merlin, Eddie Marsan as Uther, Andrew Gower as Sansum, and more.

Where is The Winter King Season 2 coming out?

The Winter King Season 2 isn’t confirmed to be released on MGM+ and ITVX. ComingSoon will provide an update if and when season 2 is officially greenlit.

The official synopsis for The Winter King reads:

“Bastard son Arthur returns to the land he’s been banished from to find a kingdom in chaos. Seeking the aid of his oldest confidants, Arthur aims to right Britain’s path as he faces the most unexpected of obstacles.”
