Apple TV+ season 2 releases 2026

In July 2026 Apple TV+ confirmed second‑season launches for two series, illustrating the platform’s expanding slate of original content.

On 15 July the service announced that the German dark‑comedy *Where’s Wanda?* will return for an eight‑episode second season on 21 October, following the Klatts family’s fight to clear their daughter’s name. The series is produced by UFA Fiction and created by Oliver Lansley.

A week later, on 25 July, Apple TV+ set the premiere date for the sci‑fi series *Dark Matter* Season 2 for 28 August. A trailer shown at a San Diego Comic‑Con panel confirmed a ten‑episode run that will air weekly worldwide through 30 October. The trailer re‑introduces physicist Jason Dessen (Joel Edgerton), his wife Daniela (Jennifer Connelly) and son Charlie, and hints at a deeper obsession with the mysterious Box and new threats posed by allies Amanda (Alice Braga) and Ryan (Jimmi Simpson). An official podcast hosted by creator Blake Crouch and executive producer Jacquelyn Ben‑Zekry will accompany the season, exploring the multiverse concepts behind the show.

The trailer release added further plot details, noting the family’s struggle in “World 26,” the escalating threat that forces them to flee again, and supporting characters such as Leighton (Dayo Okeniyi) and Blair (Amanda Brugel). These updates reinforce Apple TV+’s strategy of delivering diverse, internationally‑targeted content by scheduling multiple season‑2 premieres in the latter half of 2026.
