Dopesick Season 2 Release Date
Hulu hasn’t said yet if there will be a second season of the show. Also, when talking to a fan in November 2021, the show’s creator Danny Strong wouldn’t say for sure that the show wouldn’t go on in any way. Strong was optimistic about the possibility of a second season, but he warned that there had been no official talks about a second season yet.
So, whether or not there will be a second season depends on how well the first season does. If the show is more popular than the streamer thought it would be, the company may buy a second season. Fans shouldn’t have too high of hopes for the drama series, since it’s based on a non-fiction book with a tightly wrapped story. In fact, it is being sold as a miniseries right now.
