Hunting Wives Season 2: Netflix’s Wildest Return Gets Even Darker, and Sexier

Hunting Wives Season 2 is coming to Netflix with new cast, bigger twists, and bold drama. Get all the new details now.

The claws are out in Hunting Wives Season 2, and Netflix seems more than happy to fuel the chaos. The streamer has officially said “I do” to another season, bringing back Brittany Snow, Malin Akerman, and the most emotionally supportive cast member of all: Margo’s wig.

With secrets stacked higher than a Dallas gala centerpiece, this Texas-set thriller is gearing up for a fresh storm of scandal, seduction, and designer-boot mayhem.

For viewers from Los Angeles to Berlin who love their drama with flavor, decadence, and a fun-loving twist, this renewal feels like a natural next step. And let’s be honest, anyone who watched Season 1 knows Maple Brook is the kind of place where trouble ages like small-batch bourbon. Smooth. Strong. Too easy to drink.

The Hunting Wives Season 2 Cast Returns, with John Stamos Stirring the Pot

Netflix didn’t just bring the band back together—they added an unexpected new frontman. Alongside Snow’s Sophie, Akerman’s magnetic Margo, and Dermot Mulroney’s delightfully scandalous Jed Banks, Season 2 welcomes John Stamos as Chase Brylan.

The original crew: Jaime Ray Newman, Evan Jonigkeit, George Ferrier, Karen Rodriguez, Hunter Emery, and guest star Branton Box returns to keep Maple Brook pulsing with tension.

Fans in cities like Manhattan, SF, Aspen, and Hong Kong know how intoxicating a tight social circle can get when someone new enters the room. Throw in Texas humidity, old money, and an unhinged amount of emotional aerobics, and you’ve got a recipe that’s messy, relatable, and somehow glamorous all at once.

New Faces, New Secrets: Maple Brook Opens the Gates

Joining Stamos are Dale Dickey as Zelda Moffitt, Cam Gigandet as Gentle John Moffitt, Kim Matula as Nadia Kelly, and Alex Fitzalan as Lincoln Trout—names that feel almost too tailored for trouble. Only time will tell what kind of chaos they’ll unleash, but given this show’s track record, expect fireworks with the flavor of a fun-loving summer scandal.

Fans of True Blood, The Wilds, and Burlesque will recognize these fresh additions immediately, adding another layer of cinematic richness to the mix.

How Hunting Wives Season 2 Became a Streaming Hit-in-the-Making

Members didn’t just watch Season 1, they devoured it.

The series spent five weeks on the global English Top 10, racking up more than 20 million views even in its single-language release. Meanwhile, May Cobb’s original novel surged to No. 4 on Amazon’s bestseller list and No. 1 in women’s psychological fiction.

Not bad for a small Texas town where the body count threatens to outnumber the brunch reservations.

The new season will “be a continuation of the storyline based on an original script.” As executive producer Rebecca Cutter puts it:

“I’m so excited to write these amazing characters again.

And I can’t wait to take the audience on another sexy, twisted, batshit crazy ride through Maple Brook.”

If that doesn’t hint at premium drama fit for the upscale cities we love, Miami Beach rooftops, Vegas lounges, DC power parties, I don’t know what does.

The Season 2 Logline Gives Us Just Enough to Panic

Here’s the tease:
“Sophie and Margo are on the outs. But soon enough, old secrets and new foes force them back together. As they play their dangerous games, the question arises: Are they the hunters or the hunted?”

Translation: friendships will fracture, alliances will flip, and somebody’s going to ruin a couture gown. Maybe multiple somebodies. It’s Maple Brook, scandal is practically a civic duty.
