Watchmen debuted its first season in 2019 and comes out as one of the most popular series on HBO. After the first oceans of the series successfully marked its release, the fans were excited to see the superhero series again on the screen. Watchmen brings a sample success on the screen and gives all the reason for the fans to stick with the show’s future potential. While HBO started to work on its other series like House of Thrones, fans are still waiting for Watchmen Season 2 to happen. 

Inspired by the DC comic book that shared the same name, the comic book started to be published in 1986. Created by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons, the series took much longer than anticipated time to be featured on the screen. The frosted oceans of the Watchmen premiered on October 20, 2019, and was an instant success. 

HBO’s Watchmen brings back the iconic cast and incredible plot to the light, making everyone gasp with excitement. The first season was bewildering and the storyline kept the interest of the people throughout the end. As the first season finally concluded, the people were excited to meet the cast back on the stage. Unfortunately, it seems like Damon Lindelof won’t be joining the cast.

In this article, we’ll be sharing everything about the series in detail. Continue reading the article to find out everything in detail. 

Watchmen Season 2: Is it Confirmed or Not?

Watchmen Season 2  Are you wondering about the renewal status of the Watchmen? In an interview with Damon Lindelof, he said, “It took us two years to make nine episodes of Watchmen, and in that same period we made almost 50 episodes of Lost, I honestly don’t know how it was done.”

Damon shared his thoughts on the series and said, “This was the story that I wanted to tell, but it could be much more expensive than this,” he said. “Not that I see myself as Willy Wonka, but it’s time to bring some other kids into the factory. I couldn’t imagine a greater focus for me than to throw open the doors to the factory and say, ‘I will show you around and tell you what I learned here, but you’ve got to bring the ingredients that you want to mix up here and make your candy.’

As the news spread among the fans, they were disappointed to learn that the producer won’t be coming back. As of now, there’s been a lot of things wandering around the show. While the renewal status of the series looks like a distinct possibility, fans are convinced that the show will be coming back. 

HBO is already busy with the production of another series. In recent times, the channel is trying to put the best content on the screen. It seems like Watchmen Season 2 is the least interesting project for them. Despite the superhero series getting multiple nominations for Emmy and the popularity getting more diverse and big, there’s no official announcement for the second season. 

Lindelof also shared his views on the renewal and said, “The idea that the Seventh Cavalry, who seem to be presenting a white supremacist ideology in the pilot, have appropriated Rorschach based on his writings, as a white supremacist,” he noted “Rorschach is dead, he’s not around to say, ‘You got it all wrong.’”

Unfortunately, there are no updates on the release date for Watchmen Season 2. The series has already become super hectic after the release of the firsts season. Despite the show garnering huge responses in front of the audience and the critics, the series failed to mention its renewal status.

However, the channel is not working on the future of the series, we have majorly witnessed that the renewal of the show is largely dependent upon the popularity of the series, so, if that’s the case, there are huge chances for the show to come back again. 

Also, Damon has already backed off from the show, the showrunner said, “It would be hard to imagine doing it without Damon involved in some way” On the other hand, they also added, “Where we left it with Damon as he’s thinking about what he wants to do and I’m taking his lead on that. If he has an idea that he’s excited about, then I’m excited; if he wants to do something else, then that’s what I want to do.” 

If Watchmen Season 2 gets renewed, it will be released in 2023 or 2024. Time of writing,  there is no official announcement regarding the cancellation of the show. That’s why we are assuming that there is a possible future for the show.
