The original BBC One-Netflix series, “The Serpent,” is based on real events and currently streaming on one of the best platforms. It got much popularity as a crime drama and made a good fan following. But, unfortunately, this is a limited series of BBC. This means the last episode has a clear end, and there will be no The Serpent Season 2.

The British Crime drama serial “The Serpent” is commissioned by the BBC and developed by Mammoth Screen. This limited series consists of eight parts and is co-production by BBC One and Netflix. The amazing part of this series is that it is based on the real story of Charles Sobhraj, who is a murderer of young tourists between 1975 to 2000.

As we know, this is a limited series, and they shouldn’t renew it for the second season. But from the past experiences, we can say that some series which are initially planned to be limited got renewed for the sequel because of the excellent response from the fans. Thus, there are chances of “The Serpent Season 2”.

What will be the plot of The Serpent Season 2?

As we discussed above, this series has a story of a serial killer of the 1970s Charles Sobhraj, which Tahir Rahim plays. The series shows how he invites the tourists and travelers in his area as friends and then robbed and killed them. He worked with his lover MarieAndree Leclerc and loved to escape from the crime scene in his style.

This story is full of thrillers, crime, blood, and love. This show moves us back in time and reveals the complete journey and how he planned to escape and go down to jail. His story starts in Thailand and ends in jail.

In the sequel, maybe one more killer rises, and the story will be based on one more serpent of a different era and place. Unfortunately, we didn’t have much information about it because of the completely ended story of season 1, but there will be soon.

What will be the Cast members of “The Serpent Season 2”?

Until now, we didn’t get the official words from the BBC and Netflix about cast members. So we don’t know whether the cast members return for a sequel or a new cast. But here, we have listed some important characters who had played an excellent role in Season 1 and can be included in the sequel.

  • Tahar Rahim as Charles Sobhraj.
  • Fabien Frankel as Dominique Renelleau.

Frequently Asked Questions


When will the
trailer of The Serpent Season 2 come out?

The producers aren’t renewing it for the second season, so there is no announcement about the trailer yet, but there will be soon. Until then, if you haven’t watched this series, go and watch it. We will update you when we get any information about the trailer. Stay tuned.

Will there be a second season in production?

Season one of “The Serpent” consists of eight episodes and each an hour long. So we saw a complete journey of a serial killer in just eight hours, and that’s great. But if we talk about the second season, as for now, we didn’t get any official news about it, and the producers already said it’s a limited show.

I already discussed above, a limited series can get the sequel, but it depends on the popularity and fan following. Unfortunately, this series has not made that much fan following, but it is a newly available on Netflix so that the ranking can grow with some more time.

If it got a great fan following that, the production would release the sequel. But, for now, let’s see what happens?

When The Serpent Season 2 Will Release?

The first season of this series ends up with the complete end to the Sobhraj story, and it does not seem that the sequel can be on the further story of him. Because this story is based on real events, and in reality, the story has been completed. 

They can make Season 2 on the life of another serial killer, but this is still doubtful. The chances for the next season are very less, and we shouldn’t expect another season. If you still want an estimate of a sequel, then it will be released by 2022. And we will inform you if we get any update about it.
