Murderbot is getting a season 2 on Apple TV Plus

Apple TV Plus’ adaptation of Martha Wells’ Murderbot Diaries has been one of this year’s surprisingly great sci-fi series, and the streamer has plans to keep the story going with a new batch of episodes.

Ahead of Murderbot’s season 1 finale out July 11th, Apple TV Plus announced today that the show has been renewed for a season 2. In a statement about the renewal, Murderbot co-creators / executive producers Chris and Paul Weitz said they were “so grateful” for how well the series has been received by fans. No concrete details about the new season have been revealed just yet, but Apple TV Plus’ head of programming Matt Cherniss teased that, in addition to following Murderbot (Alexander Skarsgård) on his next adventure, we can expect to see even more of The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon.
