Hulu Renews “Furious” For A Second Season
Just ahead of the season finale of the original drama series, “Furious”, Disney has announced that it has renewed the show for a second season.
“Furious” follows an FBI agent, Alice Black (Emmy Rossum) on the hunt for a mysterious and calculating female serial killer (Lola Petticrew). Both walk their own paths toward justice, and as their lives start to intertwine, the line between right and wrong begins to blur.
According to Disney, the series has been gaining momentum with viewership growing week over week. Views for episode 7 were up 40% from the premiere (based on 1-day views). The series was Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes at 100% on its day of launch, and has held strong at 98%.
The series was created, written and executive produced by Elizabeth Meriwether. Emmy Rossum executive produced for Composition 8, along with Ronald Bass, Matt Olmstead, and Sam Hoffman. Brian Kirk executive produced and directed episodes 101 and 102. The series is produced by 20th Television and Searchlight Television.
Season one stars Emmy Rossum, Lola Petticrew, Quincy Tyler Bernstine, and Scoot McNairy, along with guest stars Jake Lacy, Rob Delaney, Hope Davis, Rob Yang and Steve Way.
The season finale is set to be released on Monday, 31st August 2026, on Hulu and Hulu On Disney+ in the United States and on Disney+ around the world. The previous episodes are available to stream now.
Roger’s Take: Getting a season two renewal before the finale airs is a good sign that Disney has faith in the series, especially if the viewership continues to increase week to week. This news of a second season will also likely result in more people being willing to give the show a whirl and, for some people who have checked out an episode or two, to continue, knowing it’s not just ending on a cliffhanger.
