The Eternaut Season 2: Confirmed or Cancelled?

The Eternaut captivated science fiction enthusiasts with its chilling apocalyptic narrative, swiftly gaining prominence as one of the most discussed Argentine TV series in recent times.

The series vividly portrays a chilling vision of the future, where a lethal blizzard engulfs Buenos Aires; the reason behind this catastrophe remains uncertain at first.

The storyline centers around a band of individuals struggling to live in a rugged post-apocalyptic landscape while uncovering the mystery behind the catastrophic incident. Among them is Ricardo DarĂ­n’s character, Juan Salvo, on a quest to find his lost daughter.

The show has gained significant international acclaim, making it into Netflix’s top 10 not just in Argentina, but also in countries like the United Kingdom. As a result, many viewers worldwide are now anxiously anticipating a follow-up season.

So, here’s everything we know so far about the future of The Eternaut.

Will there be The Eternaut season 2?

There’s no official word from Netflix about another season of “The Eternaut”, but its star, Ricardo DarĂ­n, seems optimistic that they’ll all come together again for a follow-up.

Speaking in an interview with Vogue Spain (translated from Spanish), he mentioned that due to both legal and ethical commitments, we must move forward with the second phase. The details of when and how are yet unknown, but it needs to happen.

The journey may begin differently, yet it concludes elsewhere. Regardless, we’re determined to reach the destination. There’s curiosity swirling among spectators, the fans, about what this epic final battle on River Plate’s field will be like. Whether I manage to make it, perhaps using a wheelchair, our goal remains the same: we’ll get there.

It seems quite intriguing! Plus, DarĂ­n added to Forbes that the creative team already has plans for the sequel of The Eternaut, aiming to surpass their previous work.

As of now, Netflix has remained silent about the possibility of The Eternaut season 2, so we’ll patiently wait for their official confirmation in this rapidly changing media environment, where unexpected cancellations are not uncommon.

It would be great if the audience for the show encourages the streaming platform’s management to continue, as The Eternaut ranks fourth in the UK, an impressive position considering it’s a non-English program.

When could a potential The Eternaut season 2 be released?

As a devoted film enthusiast, I can’t help but imagine the possibility of another season for “The Eternaut.” However, if this dream comes true, we might need to wait a bit longer – approximately two years or more – until the new episodes grace our screens via Netflix.

From my perspective as a cinephile, it’s clear that the creators have invested an immense amount of time and effort into this project. The initial five episodes were filmed over a span of nearly half a year, while the meticulous post-production phase, particularly focusing on those breathtaking visual effects, has taken a whopping 18 months to perfect.

It doesn’t consider the time spent writing the scripts, but if DarĂ­n’s statements are accurate and a second season was included in the original plan, then the team might have already begun working on the scriptwriting process ahead of time.

Despite our best guesses, it seems unlikely that Season 2 of The Eternaut will premiere on Netflix before the summer of 2027.

Who could star in a potential The Eternaut season 2?

If there’s a second season of The Eternaut, it’s highly probable that renowned Argentine actor Ricardo DarĂ­n will rejoin the cast, as he has shown great interest in the project.

Let me refresh your memory about some significant characters from “The Eternaut” that might make an appearance in upcoming installments:

1. Commander John Drake – our fearless protagonist and the central figure of the story.
2. The Eternauts – a mysterious group of extraterrestrial beings, possessing advanced technology and supernatural abilities.
3. The Aliens – the primary antagonists, responsible for the invasion of Earth.
4. Maria – John Drake’s love interest and a key figure in the resistance against the aliens.
5. The Resistance – a group of humans fighting against the alien occupation.

What could happen in a potential The Eternaut season 2?

It’s quite possible that a potential second season of “The Eternaut” will be inspired by, or draw elements from, the second volume of the original comic series written by HĂ©ctor GermĂĄn Oesterheld and illustrated by Francisco Solano LĂłpez.

Initially released in 1975, the book’s summary (translated from Spanish via Good Reads) hints that the time-travel narrative traverses “from 1959 to the post-apocalyptic future of Buenos Aires” and offers insights into a period riddled with unhealed wounds and an enduring thirst for justice.

Is there a trailer for a potential The Eternaut season 2?

No, as it’s yet to be renewed. We’ll update this page if any footage drops.
