Will There Be A Paradise Season 2?

And now, for the moment of truth! Curious if Paradise Season 2 is a go at Hulu? You bet! On February 20, ahead of the Season 1 finale, Hulu renewed Paradise for Season 2, with Fogelman revealing he has a three-season arc for the series already planned out.

“I have a plan for three seasons of the show. Without giving away too much, each season of the show is a slightly different show, within the same show with the same characters,” Fogelman told The Hollywood Reporter. “…As we go into second season, we pivot a little bit, but in a way that I think is very follow-able. But yes, there’s big moves ahead.”

In an interview with Decider, Paradise star Sarah Shahi also opened about a second season and confirmed that her character Gabriela would be returning. “I’m not 100% sure what that storyline would look like, but we have talked about Season 2. I would be a part of [it],” she said. “And Dan is just so damn good. He creates such rich characters that really can go anywhere, and he builds in so much heart for each person. I would love to explore what Gabriela’s backstory is and go along that ride with him.”
