With the first season proving to be another big television hit for Taylor Sheridan, fans are already curious about Special Ops: Lioness Season 2.

Inspired by a real-life US military program, Special Ops: Lioness follows US Marine Cruz Manuelos as she is recruited into the CIA’s “Lioness” project, which involves female operatives building relationships with the wives and daughters of high-value terrorist targets in order to gain intelligence and thwart future attacks.

Here’s everything we know about Special Ops: Lioness Season 2’s release date and when it will be available.

Special Ops: Lioness Season 2 Release Date

There has been no official confirmation on whether Special Ops: Lioness will be renewed for a second season. Despite the ratings success of the first season, it is unsurprising that Paramount+ is taking its time making renewal decisions.

Lioness’ first season premiered during the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, and while they have been resolved, it may take some time for the show to resume production.

Special Ops: Lioness Season 2 Expected Cast

The cast for Special Ops: Lioness season 2 has yet to be confirmed, and it will most likely be determined by how the show approaches its future. Taylor Sheridan’s season 1 cast included Zoe Saldaña as Joe, Nicole Kidman as Kaitlyn Meade, and Morgan Freeman as Edwin Mullins, who may return for the second season.

Laysla De Oliveira plays Cruz, the undercover operative at the center of the mission. Given her rather somber ending, it’s unlikely she’d return to the Lioness program, leaving it unclear whether De Oliveira would reprise her role.

Here is the list of expected cast members:

• Zoe Saldaña as Joe
• Laysla De Oliveira as Cruz Manuelos
• Michael Kelly as Donald Westfield
• Nicole Kidman as Kaitlyn Meade
• Morgan Freeman as Edwin Mullins
• Austin Hébert as Randy
• Jonah Wharton as Tex
• Hannah Love Lanier as Kate

What will happen in Special Ops: Lioness Season 2?

The Special Ops: Lioness season 2 story will be heavily influenced by the series’ future direction. The second season may continue with the Lioness program as it deals with the aftermath of Cruz’s harrowing experience.

On the other hand, it could completely abandon the Lioness program and tell a brand-new story about a different Special Ops story, complete with new characters. Only time will tell if Special Ops: Lioness season 2 is released.

Is there a trailer for Special Ops: Lioness season 2?
