The chaotic drama has become one of Netflix’s biggest hits of the summer.

The Hunting Wives has become one of Netflix’s top hits of the summer in less than a week of premiering. The raunchy soap entered the streamer’s top 10 shows in the U.S. at number three at the end of July with more than 5.2 million views. It’s no wonder that viewers are already wondering if there is going to be a second season to the seductive drama.

Has the show been renewed?

Lionsgate, which produced the show, hasn’t announced if there will be a second season. However, one clue is that Netflix labeled the first eight-episode run as “Season 1,” not a limited series, as it did with its other mid-summer series Untamed, which did just get renewed for a second season. Additionally, per Deadline, the cast also has options for more seasons.

Malin Ackerman, who plays Hunting Wives’ ringleader Margo, told Town & Country before the show aired that she binge-read all of the scripts when they were first sent to her. She has since told People that she would “definitely want a season 2, not only to see it all play out, but when you get to go back to a show over and over again, it’s like going to summer camp and seeing the people that you love the most. That’s what this show feels like. I loved everyone on the cast and crew. If we get a second season, I’ll be so, so happy.”

There could be a new murder mystery.

Showrunner Rebecca Cutter talked with Variety in July about changes made from the book to the screenplay, and how those alterations might have opened the door for a second season. (Notably, some of the main characters who died in May Cobb’s book of the same name are still alive at the end of season one of the show.) She also told the trade publication that while it’s still the early stages, it could be “smart” to introduce a new murder mystery storyline altogether.

“I think we’d do a little bit of a time jump—not a year, but a time. By the end of shooting, I realized that the two engines of the show are the whodunit and the Margo/Sophie relationship, and tracking how those spines intersect with each other,” Cutter told Variety. “The first thing I’m thinking about is, where are these two women at the start? Where are they at the end? What are the peaks and valleys of their individual power, of their relationship? So it’s tracking a course for that, and then figuring out what the crime engine is.”

Brittany Snow, who plays East Coast transplant Sophie, also appears to be open to returning, although she seems more interested in picking up where season one left off. “There are a lot of questions that didn’t get answered because Rebecca wants to answer them in the next season if we get one,” Snow told Collider.
