Will there be a Legends season 2 on Netflix?

*Warning – contains full spoilers for all six episodes of Legends.*

I just finished binge-watching Neil Forsyth’s ‘Legends’ on Netflix, and it’s fantastic! It follows Guy Stanton, played by Tom Burke, and his team of undercover customs officers as they infiltrate some seriously dangerous drug operations all over Britain. Definitely worth checking out if you’re into crime dramas.

This series is based on a remarkable true story from the 1990s and features performances by Steve Coogan, Hayley Squires, Aml Ameen, and Jasmine Blackborow.

Now that all six episodes are out, fans are wondering if the show will be renewed for a second season and if we’ll see more of the story and characters.

Read on for everything you need to know about the potential for a Legends season 2.

Will there be a Legends season 2?

It’s currently unclear if Legends will be renewed for a second season. The first season has a satisfying conclusion, making it feel like a complete story, and it works well as a single season.

Interestingly, the show isn’t labeled as a limited series like some other Netflix shows. This hints that there’s a good chance we might see more seasons in the future.

It’s safe to say there are probably many similar, fascinating stories from this era, and perhaps more to discover about Guy Stanton himself. The series could easily expand to feature other remarkable people who lived secret lives, each with their own unique story to tell.

We’ll need to wait and see what happens with Legends, and we’ll update this page as soon as we have any news about its future.

When could a potential Legends season 2 be released?

It’s currently unknown when a second season of Legends will be released, as the show hasn’t been officially renewed yet.

However, if we’re speculating, then a 2028 release date might seem most likely.

Although a second season of the show could potentially be ready within a year, the creator’s previous series, The Gold, took two years to receive a renewal, and both shows seem to have a comparable production scale. We expect Legends will likely follow a similar timeframe.

We will keep this page updated as and when we get any more concrete information.

Who would return to star in a potential Legends season 2?

It’s unclear which of the original cast members would be back if ‘Legends’ were to get another season. While a continuation of Tom Burke’s character, Guy Stanton, is possible, it’s more likely the show would follow a new team of recruits at a different time.

Characters like Steve Coogan’s Don and Douglas Hodge’s Blake would be ideal choices to guide and mentor the new additions to the group.

It’s important to remember this is just a guess. However, we can be pretty sure certain characters won’t be back. That includes Hakan (played by Numan Acar), Aziz (Kem Hassan), and Carter (Tom Hughes) – they were all arrested at the season’s end. Also, Zeki (Joshua Samuels) won’t be returning, as his character was killed during the season.

Is there a trailer for a potential Legends season 2?

A trailer for Legends season 2 isn’t available yet because the show hasn’t been renewed and filming hasn’t begun. We’ll add any new trailers as soon as they’re released. In the meantime, you can enjoy the season 1 trailer below.
