When is Better than Us Season 2 Releasing?
Unfortunately, the future of “Better Than Us” hangs in a precarious balance. While the original Russian version ran for two seasons, with 16 episodes in total, Netflix combined them into one international season. This led to confusion and a lingering hope for further installments.
Whether or not the show will be renewed for a second season or not remains a mystery. This has left the fans wondering what’s next. Though production company Yellow, Black and White hinted at plans in 2020, Netflix’s involvement remains unclear. Series creator Alexander Kessel has been preoccupied with other projects, adding further uncertainty.
The lack of information has also left the fans very disappointed about what’s next and what’s going to come around with the show’s future.
What can we expect from Better than Us Season 2?
The ending of season 1 left several storylines dangling. Arisa, the advanced humanoid robot with newfound sentience, had just undergone a dramatic reboot. Her creators, Victor and Gleb, faced uncertain futures, while the battle between humans and robots simmered just beneath the surface.
A second season could explore the ethical and societal implications of Arisa’s evolution. Can robots coexist peacefully with humans? What rights do they deserve?
Furthermore, the power struggle between Victor and Gleb, representing corporate greed and scientific curiosity, could escalate. We might also see the rise of new threats, both human and machine, jeopardizing the fragile balance.
At this point, there’s not a lot of information about what’s going to happen in the new season. So, it looks like we’d have to wait to see how things pan out in the future or the coming seasons. Things do seem confusing right now, so only time will tell how things pan out.
Who is Returning on Better than Us Season 2?
When the show is renewed for a second season, there are possibilities that the main cast will return eventually, including:
- Paulina Andreeva as Arisa
- Kirill Käro as Georgiy Safronov
- Irina Tarannik as Svetlana Toropova
- Olga Lomonosova as Alla
- Aleksandr Ustyugov as Viktor Toropov
- Eldar Kalimulin as Egor
There could be a few new characters introduced in the mix too, but we don’t have any concrete information just yet.
Conclusion
Better than Us Season 2 has a lot of potential in it and to be fair, we won’t know anything for sure until we receive more insights about the show’s return down the line. It is more of how things would pan out in the future seasons that have left the fans curious and intrigued.
