Season two of Netflix's hit “13 Reasons Why” has just been announced, and we have shared quite a bit about it. Executive producer Selena Gomez took to Twitter last night to reveal that “13 Reasons Why” would return to Netflix in 2018.
Selena Gomez did not provide us with enough details about the new season of the show, but it was showrunner Bryan Yorkey who gave us a taste of what's to come. The first season was based on a book of the same name by Jay Asher, focusing on the life of Hannah Baker and the video tapes she left behind detailing the reasons she took her life.
A report by Glamour reveals that “13 Reasons Why 2” will tell an entirely different story. The Netflix show of thirteen episodes – one episode for each reason – had seen Dylan Minnetter (Clay) listen to Hannah’s tapes and slowly know who impacted her life and finding out why she committed suicide.
The web television series is admired for its engaging story, excellent star performances, and a powerful message. At the same time, it has faced criticism due to its unflinching telling of Baker’s tale – depicting how she took her life. Not only this but also the show is criticized for its sex scenes. A few school administrators in the United States raised their voices against “13 Reasons Why” and advised parents to keep their children away from this series.
When is season 2 of ‘13 Reasons Why’ out?
Selena Gomez and the official “13 Reasons Why” Twitter accounts broke the news of another season a few days ago. According to ScreenRant, the story of Hannah Baker’s life is not over. The news outlet also reports that a date is yet to be announced, but the show may premiere in 2018. The filming could begin this August and may last for seven to nine months.
The casting details
Fans will be happy to know that the cast of “13 Reasons Why” may be back to work. While Hannah Baker (Katherine Langford) is no longer the show’s narrator as the series moves into another season, Katherine shared a few snaps of Hannah on her official Instagram on July 7 with the caption "Second season is back.”
According to ScreenRant, Christian Navarro, who portrayed the enigmatic Tony, is back in the show but the nature of her role is unknown.
Miles Heizer (Alex Standall), Devin Druid (Tyler Down), Ross Butler (Zach Dempsey), Michele Selene Ang (Courtney Crimson), and Steven Silver (Marcus Cole) may also join the cast.
