‘Hunting Wives’ Is Officially Coming Back
It is official, Frens. Netflix has renewed “Hunting Wives” for Season 2, and I could not be more excited.
The sultry East Texas drama turned my quick peek into a full-blown binge.
I sat down to sample one episode and ended up watching the entire season in a single sitting. No regrets, only popcorn.
What Is ‘Hunting Wives’ About
Set in East Texas, the series follows Sophie, a Cambridge transplant pulled into the glamorous inner circle of Margo, the queen bee wife of oil tycoon Jed Banks.
Cocktails turn into secret meetups, jealousies, and risky games that blur the lines between friendship, desire, and power.
As whispers become scandals and crimes, Sophie learns that keeping up appearances can cost everything.
Based on May Cobb’s novel, the Netflix drama serves glossy thrills with sharp, soapy suspense.
What The New Season Brings
Expect more champagne, sharper side-eyes, and secrets tucked neatly behind those picture-perfect smiles.
The series follows Sophie, a Cambridge transplant drawn into Margo’s glitzy social circle that comes with high stakes and even higher drama.
Season 2 promises fresh fallout, complicated loyalties, and choices that will test every marriage and friendship in their orbit.
Who’s Back In East Texas
Much of the original cast is returning. Brittany Snow is back as Sophie.
Malin Akerman returns as Margo, wife of oil tycoon Jed Banks, played by Dermot Mulroney.
Jaime Ray Newman reprises Callie, Margo’s venomous right hand.
Evan Jonigkeit returns as Graham, Sophie’s husband.
George Ferrier is back as Brad, the heartthrob who keeps hearts racing and secrets messy.
A Certified Netflix Hit
“Hunting Wives” had viewers in a chokehold.
After release, it spent five weeks on Netflix’s global English Top 10 TV list and racked up more than 20 million views during that stretch.
The buzz even sent May Cobb’s 2021 novel back up the charts, jumping to No. 4 on Amazon’s bestsellers list and No. 1 in women’s psychological fiction.
Why Season 1 Worked So Well
The hook is irresistible.
You get luxe lifestyles, morally gray choices, and a Southern setting that looks sweet on the surface yet sizzles underneath.
Add magnetic performances from Brittany Snow and Malin Akerman, then layer in Dermot Mulroney’s powerful presence as a political climber who loves the shadows just as much as the spotlight.
It is the perfect recipe for a weekend binge.
Premiere Timing
Netflix has confirmed the renewal, though a premiere date has not been announced.
I will keep my eyes peeled and my notifications on.
When the date drops, I will have you covered.
Book To Screen: The May Cobb Effect
If you enjoyed the show, grab May Cobb’s novel “The Hunting Wives.”
The Season 1 surge proved readers love the blend of glossy fun and psychological suspense.
It is a quick, juicy read that deepens the on-screen world.
