Under a Dark Sun premiered on Netflix on July 9, 2025, and has already entered the top 10 streaming charts in multiple countries. The French thriller revolves around Alba, a single mother who joins a rose estate as a flower picker.

However, she soon realizes that she has familial ties with the estate’s owners and becomes a suspect in a murder case. After various twists and turns, the show solves the murder mystery in the Season 1 finale.

The season features only six episodes, and the audience is now wondering if there will be an Under a Dark Sun Season 2 that will continue Alba’s story. As of now, Netflix has not renewed the series for a second installment.


Is there going to be an Under a Dark Sun Season 2?

At the time of writing, Netflix has not announced the development of an Under a Dark Sun Season 2. The show has been billed as a miniseries, which usually lasts one season. However, there have been exceptions in the past where limited series have been renewed for multiple seasons due to their high viewership.

For now, Netflix will likely analyze the ratings of the show to decide if it is profitable enough to be renewed for another season. The streaming platform will also take into account factors like the budget of the series and the number of new subscriptions that it was able to bring.

After considering all these aspects, Netflix might make a decision about the show’s future and make an announcement about its cancellation or renewal. From the story’s point of view, most of the plot points have been resolved in the first season’s finale.

However, there are a few characters who could still stir things up, especially Nadia, who has just arrived at the Rose estate. Hence, the narrative still has the potential to be continued. Thus, Under a Dark Sun Season 2 has not been confirmed as of now, but that could change in the future.

However, we need to wait for an official confirmation from Netflix. If the show does get renewed in the upcoming weeks, it would take at least a year to be produced. A potential second season is hence expected to land on Netflix in the second half of 2026.


What to expect from Under a Dark Sun Season 2?

In the potential second season, we can expect more drama as family secrets keep coming out. The truth about Arnaud’s murder is already out, but the real killer made a deal with Alba and did not go to jail. This could make for an impressive plot point in the next season.

Meanwhile, Nadia, who used to work at the Lasserre estate, is now the new owner of the land. With her return, both of Alba’s parents could become a part of Season 2, as Mathieu is her real father. The next chapter could talk about how Alba deals with these complicated relationships.

All episodes of Under a Dark Sun Season 1 are streaming on Netflix.
