Now that we know the Season 2 is happening. Following are all he details we know about it.

The Serpent Queen Season 2: Cast

Currently, we are yet to know if there would be any addition or subtraction to the already existing cast of the series. Hence, we cannot provide the exact official cast list of the next season. Moreover, we think it is safe to speculate that most of the main characters and series regulars of the show are likely to return for another season. Nevertheless, check out the potential cast of Season 2 below:

  • Samantha Morton as Catherine de’ Medici
  • Liv Hill as the younger Catherine
  • Amrita Acharia as Aabis
  • Barry Atsma as Montmorency
  • Enzo Cilenti as Cosimo Ruggeri

Furthermore, it is possible that there could be an addition to the above mentioned cast of the series.

The Serpent Queen Season 2: Plot

Currently, the plotline of the upcoming season is still kept under the wraps. However, we know that the show broadly follows the story of Catherine de’ Medici, who marries into the French Valois court as a fourteen year-old teenager expected to bring in a fortune in dowry and produce heirs. Despite many challenges, a lifetime of clever political maneuvering allows her to rule France as queen for 30 years.

We think it is safe to speculate that the next season would pick from where it was left off.

The Serpent Queen Season 2: Release Date

Starz renewed the series for a second season on October 27, 2022. Considering the time gap from the show’s renewal, we can expect the second season to premiere in 2023. However, since, there is no official notice from the series we are unsure if the series will premiere this year.
