The British superhero series ‘Supacell‘ landed on Netflix in June and became a surprise hit for the streaming service. Created by the acclaimed filmmaker Rapman, the show follows a group of London teenagers who discover they have superpowers.
After just one week, ‘Supacell‘ was already one of Netflix’s most popular shows globally. However, Netflix has yet to announce whether the story will carry on with a second season. Here’s all we know about a potential second season and what creator Rapman has planned for the future.

Is ‘Supacell’ Season 2 Happening?
Based on the strong early viewership and Rapman’s plan which is a three-season arc for ‘Supacell‘, all lean towards to the renewal of the show. Netflix considers viewership metrics as their top criteria when deciding the shows’ futures, and considering the level of reach the first season as had, works all in its renewal.
With Rapman already looking forward to the next chapter, season two could potentially enter production in late 2024. Fans should remain optimistic based on the creator’s views and how much exposure the show has received within a few weeks of its release. Unless interest drops off, ‘Supacell‘ has checked enough boxes for Netflix to want to keep this new hit going.
