Taboo: Is Season 2 Cancelled? What Is Known So Far?

It has been three years since the launch of the first season of crime thriller as well the renewal announcement of Taboo. The makers took no time in announcing a second season to the period drama the very same year. However, since then, we all are just waiting and waiting when is that second season would happen.

Production Details Related To Taboo Season 2

The main reason for the upcoming season taking such a long time is because of the lead protagonist Tom Hardy’s busy schedule. The production schedule has not even started yet, and now we are even more afraid after the suspension of all the production activities because of the ongoing Coronavirus or COVID-19 pandemic. So it seems that the title of the show is serving the same in real life for the entire cast and crew as we cannot make any predictions when the situation is back to normal.

Plot Of TabooSeason 2

Taboo follows the life of an England man and takes us back during the 19th century, where the man runs away to Africa, who returns to England with a lot of diamonds in hand but sadly after the demise of his father. This all was backed with the base of the American war, which has not come to an end, and now we get to see the dark side of London: corruption, the life of the middle class, robbery, and whatnot.

Cast Of Taboo Season 2

The show stars Tom Hardy, Leo Bill, Jessie Buckley, Oona Chaplin, Stephen Graham, and others. It is a BBC original with season one consisting of eight episodes and we expect that the second season would follow the same track.

Expected Release Date Of Taboo Season 2

However, now we cannot even anticipate any release date unless there is any update on the resuming of filming back again. So we need to keep our patience levels intact and hope that it appears as soon as it can. The show has received a very good amount of critical acclaim as well as the tremendous response from the viewers and it came out very disappointing that a new season is taking so much time for a release. But atleast we know that it has not been canceled and will happen for sure.
