Eve Myles is all set to return in The Crow Girl Season 2 as DCI Jeanette Kilburn, as Paramount+ UK is bringing the show back for another season.

The investigative thriller series, based on Erik Axl Sund's eponymous novel, has been one of the highlights in the streamer's past catalog. Its first season earned widely positive reviews, paving the way for another season to be greenlit by the studio. Previously, it followed Kilburn as she tried to solve the case of a string of mysterious murders.

It seems Kilburn will be back with psychotherapist Dr. Sophia Craven on the hunt for the killer(s). The Hollywood Reporter reveals a detailed plot description for The Crow Girl Season 2. It reads:

“Bristol Police Detective Jeanette Kilburn has ended her marriage and found herself in bed with enigmatic psychologist Dr. Sophia Craven. Jeanette’s hunt for the killers of young male asylum seekers takes a shocking new turn when a mummified body, discovered in a church wall, and a body in a freezer reveal a chilling connection."
"As Jeanette digs deeper, Sophia begins to suspect Victoria Burkeman, her mysterious and unstable former patient who has previously been convicted of multiple murders, could be responsible. With the case growing darker, Sophia suspects Victoria is more familiar than she thought, and Jeanette must face the terrifying truth: the killer may be closer than she ever imagined.”

The first season of The Crow Girl was brought to life by Milly Thomas, who wrote the screenplay, alongside Rebecca Rycroft and Charles Martin, who worked on the show's direction. It was a six-episode season, which debuted in its entirety on January 16, 2025. Within months of its release, the show was greenlit for a second season.

Paul Tester and Sebastian Cardwell from Paramount+ commissioned the show's second season, according to THR. Cardwell spoke about the show's emotional impact and praised the acting performances, saying:

“The first season captivated audiences with its bold storytelling and standout performances, and we can’t wait to see where the team takes the story next."

Buccaneer Media CEO Tony Wood, who is one of the executive producers on The Crow Girl Season 2, added:

“The opportunity to return to the world of DCI Jeanette, Sophia, and Victoria is a real thrill; it’s a drama that stretches character and bends time. I’m absolutely delighted to be back.”

Joining Wood as an executive producer is Milly Thomas, who wrote the first season's script. Music legend Slash, who helped bring the first season to life, returns for the second season. THR reports that Federico Ambrosini, Niclas Salomonsson, and Erik Axl Sund will also join them as executive producers, with Debs Pisani producing and Charles Martin directing.

ITV Studios will handle the production of The Crow Girl Season 2, along with Buccaneer Media. Filming is expected to begin this year in Bristol, UK. Besides Eve Myles, Katherine Kelly, Victoria Hamilton, and Clara Rugaard are expected to reprise their roles. More details about the extended cast and release window are expected soon.
