The adaptation of ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith’ on Prime Video, inspired by the iconic Brangelina film and the original 1996 TV series, has garnered widespread acclaim from critics, boasting an impressive 91% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on over 100 reviews, including praise from TG’s Malcolm McMillan. The success of ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith’ has left fans eagerly anticipating the arrival of season 2.
This spy comedy features Donald Glover and Maya Erskine as a married couple who are not who they appear to be. They are paired by a covert organization to work together on various espionage missions as husband and wife.
The setup is inherently awkward, as they are two strangers thrust into an unexpected marriage. This differs significantly from the original concept of ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith,’ where the couple was revealed to be spies for opposing organizations.
On May 14, it was officially announced that ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith’ season 2 is in the works, although many questions remain regarding the storyline and release date. Here’s everything we currently know about the upcoming season.
Rumors on ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith’ season 2 release date
Now that ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith’ season 2 has been confirmed, fans are left pondering when the series will return and what to expect from the new storyline. Unfortunately, detailed information about either aspect is still scarce.
The first season ended on a cliffhanger, providing an opening for the continuation of the narrative. The conclusion didn’t seem to wrap up neatly for John and Jane, although showrunner Francesca Sloane suggested in February that their journey isn’t quite over yet.
“We wanted to ensure it felt like a complete story, even with that kind of ending,” she explained to The Hollywood Reporter. “That said, we’ve begun brainstorming ideas for season two. We wouldn’t want to create another season unless we could elevate the storytelling to surpass season one.”
Cast speculation for ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith’ season 2
Recent speculation indicates that the focus of season 2 may shift to a different couple.
Deadline reported in October that Amazon MGM Studios is looking for new actors to portray John and Jane for the upcoming season. While it remains unclear whether contracts have been offered, Billie Eilish, who recently appeared in Prime Video’s horror series ‘Swarm,’ is rumored to be a candidate.
Importantly, this does not mean Donald Glover and Maya Erskine are completely excluded; viewers of the first season noted that multiple Smith couples emerged throughout the series, leaving the door open for the original duo to return—provided their fates align following the intense finale.
For now, it’s uncertain whether any of the following cast members will reprise their roles:
- Donald Glover as John Smith
- Maya Erskine as Jane Smith
- Alexander Skarsgård as First Other John Smith
- Eiza González as First Other Jane Smith
- John Turturro as Eric Shane
- Paul Dano as Harris Materbach
- Sharon Horgan as Gavol Martin
- Billy Campbell as Parker Martin
- Sarah Paulson as Therapist
- Parker Posey as Second Other Jane
- Úrsula Corberó as Runi
- Wagner Moura as Second Other John
- Ron Perlman as Toby Hellinger
- Michaela Coel as Bev
- Beverly Glover as Denise Smithist
Potential plot developments for ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith’ season 2
Warning: Spoilers for ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith’ season 2 lie ahead.
What could season 2 of ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith’ entail when it premieres? To grasp what might happen, we need to reflect on the first season. The series introduces spies John and Jane, united by a shadowy agency to pose as a married couple during their missions. As they engage in covert operations and grow closer, an unexpected romance blossoms, yet their personal issues complicate matters.
After three critical mission failures stemming from their troubled partnership, John and Jane find themselves at risk of termination by their agency. In the explosive season finale, they are ordered to « terminate » each other as penalty for their errors, leading to an emotional farewell before Jane comes dangerously close to ending
