Although an official announcement for a second season of Ludwig has not been made, given the conclusion of the first season, it’s clear that there is ample room for further storytelling. Additionally, several questions left hanging from the first season remain unresolved.

Apart from becoming an official consultant on the team, John no longer needs to conceal his involvement, whereas James remains absent, and there persist some essential queries regarding the reasons behind his choices.

During a recent Q&A session about the show, I expressed my sincere hope that we’ll have a second season. Cross your fingers along with me!

After watching the initial episode and being asked if he could decipher the code left by James displayed on John’s wall, Mitchell admitted that he couldn’t, saying instead, “The entire first season’s worth of puzzles aren’t yet solved, which is why we’re hoping for more.

As a dedicated film enthusiast, it appears that if there’s enough audience support to warrant a continuation, BBC will undoubtedly proceed with a new season.

The precise release date for the second season of Ludwig isn’t clear yet, as it hinges on how swiftly an official renewal is granted.

If a confirmation for the second season comes quickly, we’d expect it to air approximately around the same timeframe next year, specifically in the fall of 2025.

Without the presence of its leading man, David Mitchell, it’s hard for us to envision Ludwig returning. Therefore, it seems logical that he should come back again.

For the remaining characters, we’re looking forward to seeing Anna Maxwell Martin and Dipo Ola reappear as well.

Among all the main characters, it’s surprising that Sophie Willan, playing Holly Pinder, won’t reappear next season, given that her character met a tragic end in the season 1 conclusion.

Here’s a full list of the cast members we would expect to return for Ludwig season 2:

  • David Mitchell as John ‘Ludwig’ Taylor and James Taylor
  • Anna Maxwell Martin as Lucy Betts-Taylor
  • Dipo Ola as DI Russell Carter
  • Gerran Howell as DC Simon Evans
  • Izuka Hoyle as DS Alice Finch
  • Dylan Hughes as Henry Betts-Taylor
  • Dorothy Atkinson as DCS Carol Shaw
  • Ralph Ineson as Chief Constable Ziegler
