Netflix has greenlit the second season of the gripping mystery-thriller series 'Untamed'. Here's what you need to catch up on before the new episodes drop.
The popular Netflix mystery thriller series, "Untamed," is set to return for a second season, with Kyle Turner once again taking the lead as a brooding investigator for the National Parks Service. The show, which premiered on July 17, 2025, as a six-episode limited series, quickly rose to the top 10 on Netflix and garnered 24.6 million views in its first week.
The renewal of the show was confirmed on July 29, 2025, shortly after its debut. Mark L. Smith and Elle Smith, the writers of "Untamed," who have previously worked together on the show "American Primeval," are currently developing the storyline for the second season. The new season will feature a fresh mystery set in a different national park, with Kyle Turner investigating a new case.
In the first season, Turner investigated a brutal death in Yosemite National Park and uncovered dark secrets. However, it's unclear whether Turner's colleagues from Yosemite will reprise their roles in season 2. The production for "Untamed" season 2 has not started yet, but it's expected to premiere sometime in late 2026 or early 2027.
The showrunners, Mark and Elle Smith, have hinted that they envisioned the first season as a stand-alone, six-episode series, but decided to continue the story due to the strong cast and positive reception. In the second season, Kyle Turner will be trekking into unfamiliar territory and will be closer to his rookie sidekick's role from the first season.
Netflix has not yet provided an official release date for the second season, but speculation suggests the new season might come in 2026. Fans can stream the first season of "Untamed" on Netflix again while they wait for the new episodes.
