‘True Story’ Season 2: Everything We Know So Far

True Story is a drama series on Netflix starring comedian Kevin Hart and Wesley Snipes. The limited series, created by Eric Newman, has seven episodes and premiered on 24 November, 2021. The series deals with a tour stop for a world-famous comic, Kid, that becomes a matter of life and death when the fallout from a night with his brother threatens to destroy everything he’s built. Now, Kid desperately searches for a way out, after his brother is determined on sabotaging more than his success.

The series received mixed reviews but the chemistry that Hart shared with Snipes onscreen was praised. Will we be getting more in another season? Find out here:

Will There Be Season 2 Of True Story?

The series was supposed to be a limited series, which usually means the story was contained to end in a single season. In the first season, the murder mystery is all but solved by the end of the last episode. (Spoiler!) It is found out that Daphne’s “death” was a plot by Carlton (Snipes) to extort money. The brothers end up cornered by goons, Savvas and Nikos at a Philadelphia 76ers game. Carlton tries to get his younger brother saved but Kid has a trick up his sleeve. He has been concealing a gun that he reveals and manages to shoot the goons. He then turns around and kills his brother and stages the crime scene to look like it was a shoot-out. His fake testimony to the police gets him off scot-free. That is, until his bodyguard who had heard the truth, blackmails him. But even this is handled by Kid who negotiates the money from his future contract. The series ends after coming full circle, with Kid starting off his set with the same speech as he did in the first episode.

What Will The Plot Of True Story Season 2 Be?

There are not a lot of loose strings left to take up in the second season. Most of the people involved in the crime are dead except Kid. However, there are some possibilities that could be explored as the plot of the second season. Kid is still being extorted by the bodyguard and there is also the guilt of having killed his own brother riding on his back. If the series is renewed for another season, it could pick up with this plot point. There is also the possibility that his crimes will catch up to him, which would also make for an interesting watch. 

Who Will Be Cast In True Story Season 2?

If there is another season, Hart will reprise as Kid along with Will Catlett as Herschel, the blackmailing bodyguard. With most of the other major cast members dead, Snipes as Carlton, Chris Diamantopoulos as Savvas, John Ales as Nikos, and Ash Santos as Daphne, may appear in flashback scenes if there are any. As per Newman’s projection, if there is another season, Kid will be doing tours while exploiting his tragedy. There may also be some new faces, if there is a new season.

When Will True Story Season 2 Be Released?

The first season has been in work since 2020 and was finally released at the end of 2021. If the second season is renewed by Netlfix soon, we can expect to see the second season at the end of 2025. But there has been no confirmation about another season, so the second season premiere is difficult to determine now.
