The Eastern imagery and references of meditation might feel a bit on the nose for the Thailand-set third season of the HBO drama The White Lotus, but fear not, Mike White knows how to get under the surface of a resort. Expect the usual awful people and those that are close with the awful people in this season, which White called “longer, bigger, crazier.”

Leslie Bibb, Carrie Coon, Walton Goggins, Michelle Monaghan, Parker Posey and Patrick Schwarzenegger are among the cast, which, as happened in Season 2 with Jennifer Coolidge, is bringing back Natasha Rothwell’s character from Season 1. Gluten-free rice and coconut balls are a bonus.

Created by Aaron Korsh, who helmed the original mother show Suits starring Sarah Rafferty, Patrick J Adams, Gina Torres, Meghan Markle and Gabriel Macht, Suits LA centers on Ted Black (Stephen Amell), a New York federal prosecutor who has sought a new chapter in Los Angeles representing some of the most powerful clients the city has to offer. In order to save his firm from crisis, he must step into a role he is not fond of.

Alongside Amell, Josh McDermitt and Lex Scott Davis also star. Macht, who played the brash and suave super lawyer Harvey Specter on the original series, will reprise his role on the offshoot in a three-episode arc, as Deadline exclusively reported.

Season 2 of 1923, starring Helen Mirren and Harrison Ford, will premiere February 23, 2025 on Paramount+ with new episodes releasing weekly.

Cruel winter’s arrival in the next installment of the Yellowstone prequel will present new problems. Cara (Mirren) and Jacob (Ford) have unfinished business back at the Dutton ranch.

Charlie Cox’s Matt Murdock is back with his first solo MCU outing after a few cameos in other high-profile projects like Spider-Man: No Way Home. The nine-episode series debuts on Disney+ on March 4, 2025.

In Daredevil: Born Again, Murdock’s quest for justice continues as a lawyer by day and a masked vigilante by night. Meanwhile, former mob boss Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio) pursues his own political aspirations in the city. When their past identities begin to emerge, both men find themselves on an inevitable collision course. Daredevil: Born Again marks just one of many Marvel projects arriving in 2025.

“I got into this because I love movies, but now I have this fear that my job is to ruin them,” Seth Rogen says in the trailer for the Apple TV+ comedy series The Studio, which looks like an update to Robert Altman’s The Player for a generation born closer to the launch of Freaks and Geeks.

Rogen stars as the newly appointed boss of an embattled movie studio, which will likely feel recognizable to a swathe of L.A. residents. Catherine O’Hara, Kathryn Hahn, Ike Barinholtz and Chase Sui Wonders also star, with the likes of Bryan Cranston, Martin Scorsese, Anthony Mackie and Charlize Theron making appearances in the Lionsgate-produced series.

Andor Season 2 will arrive on Disney+ on April 22, 2025. Created by Tony Gilroy, the Star Wars series stars Diego Luna as Cassian Andor, one of the forefathers of the Rebellion in Star Wars. Season 1 followed Andor’s life and wrapped at the funeral of his adoptive mother Maarva (Fiona Shaw). The Imperials were tracking him, so he couldn’t attend, but the Season 1 finale episode involved him teaming with Luthen Rael (Stellan Skarsgård), who is another pillar of the Rebellion.

Ben Mendelsohn joined Season 2 to reprise his role of Orson Krennic, the villain from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.

After a two-year hiatus, The Last of Us returns to HBO this spring to continue the story of Ellie (Bella Ramsey) and Joel (Pedro Pascal), five years after the events of the first season. In Season 2, Joel and Ellie’s collective past catches up to them, drawing them into conflict with each other and a world even more dangerous and unpredictable than the one they left behind.

Season 2 is also adding to its impressive cast with the likes of Kaitlyn Dever as Abby, Isabela Merced as Dina, Young Mazino as Jesse, and Jeffrey Wright as Isaac. Catherine O’Hara also guest stars. Written and executive produced by Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann, The Last of Us Season 2 doesn’t have a release date yet, but we already have a teaser to hold us over in the meantime.

Netflix revealed in January that Ginny & Georgia will launch its third installment this summer. The smash hit YA series received a double renewal after Season 2 arrived in Jan. 2023, and there have been some staffing changes as Sarah Glinski took the reins from showrunner Debra J. Fisher for the next two seasons of the show. The series unfolds in a similar manner to Gilmore Girls, but with some darker themes.

RELATED: ‘Ginny & Georgia’ Season 3: Everything We Know So Far

All the major characters will be back, with some newcomers at Wellsbury High. Created by Sarah Lampert, Ginny & Georgia stars Antonia Gentry and Brianne Howey as the titular dynamic duo along with Diesel La Torraca, Scott Porter, Felix Mallard, Nathan Mitchell, Sara Waisglass, Jennifer Robertson, Nikki Roumel and more.

After playing a pivotal role in preserving Wakanda in Black Panther 2, Dominique Thorne’s Riri Williams is struggling to dig herself out of a creative rut in the upcoming Disney+ series Ironheart. She’s pouring all her energy into her next project when she’s expelled from MIT, prompting her to find a new way to make money by working with Anthony Ramos’ The Hood.

The six-episode series will serve as the conclusion of Phase Five of the MCU, ushering audiences one step closer to the next big Avengers outing.

Based on the popular young-adult novel of the same name by E. Lockhart, We Were Liars marks another foray by Amazon and Prime Video into the space of Gen Z television. Season 1 of the show, helmed by Julie Plec, will follow in the footsteps of one The Summer I Turned Pretty television adaptation, which has a season of its own coming out in 2025.

RELATED: Everything We Know About The ‘We Were Liars’ Show So Far

Emily Alyn Lind (Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire), Subham Maheshwari, Esther McGregor (Baby Girl) and Joseph Zada (Total Control) will play the titular four liars, or the main group of characters who drive Lockart’s book. Mamie Gummer (True Detective), Caitlin FitzGerald (Succession) and Candice King (The Vampire Diaries) will also play leads — the three Sinclair sisters.

The most-likely conclusion to Prime Video’s young adult television sensation The Summer I Turned Pretty. Season 3 will arrive at some point in the summer of 2025. It will have been two years since Season 2 rocked the boat as Belly Conklin (Lola Tung) jumped ship to be with the other Fisher brother, Jeremiah (Gavin Caselegno), after pining for his older brother Conrad (Christopher Briney) ever since she started spending summers at their house in Cousins Beach.

Season 2 also saw Belly’s family and the Fisher boys adjust to the reality without the boys’ mother, Susannah Fisher (Rachel Blanchard), whose cancer returned after she beat it the first time. Because their mothers became best friends in college, the Cousins Beach house was Belly and her brother Steven’s (Sean Kaufman) second home, and the second season saw them defend it from Susannah’s sister Julia (Kyra Sedgwick).

Viewers can look forward to more love triangle chaos — an expanded season of 11 episodes, in fact — as well as a stacked soundtrack of needle drops from artists like Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Japanese Breakfast, Beyoncé, Olivia Rodrigo and more.

The dark skies over Gilead are getting ready to storm as Hulu tees up The Handmaid’s Tale sixth and final season in 2025.

When last we saw June Osbourne (Elisabeth Moss), she was rushing out of Toronto with her husband Luke (O-T Fagbenle) and their daughter Nichole for safety. The family found themselves in hot water after Luke caused the death of a Gileadean who ran over June’s arm while driving a truck and meant to cause further harm. Knowing June would never agree to escape without him, Luke tricked her into taking the next train to Vancouver with Nichole as he was arrested by police.

It happened so fast; June didn’t have an extra second to react. Confused and upset by this latest separation, June takes a brief second to be grateful she was at least with her youngest child. Her brief moment of peace was interrupted when a baby onboard begins to cry. She is left breathless when she unexpectedly reunites with Serena Waterford (Yvonne Strahovski), who is on the same journey with her weepy son Noah.

The new season will tie up many loose ends and will no doubt lead June back to Gilead. With Luke in prison and Nick Blaine (Max Minghella) in a similar circumstance or worse back in Gilead for punching Commander Lawrence (Bradley Whitford), June won’t stop until she has her eldest Hannah back in her custody.

Oh, and there’s still that pesky conversation to be had about the brutal slaying of Fred Waterford (Joseph Fiennes).

Though not much has been revealed about Netflix’s Wednesday for Season 2, executive producers Al Gough and Miles Millar promise “darker and more complex” episodes as the titular character (Jenna Ortega) continues her studies at Nevermore Academy in 2025.

Season 1 didn’t dive into her famous Addams family members too much, but her mom Morticia (Catherine Zeta-Jones), father Gomez (Luis Guzman) and brother Pugsley (Isaac Ordoñez) are said to appear more in Season 2 as the show explores the family’s history. This could potentially open up an opportunity to meet more wacky members from the family’s tree and the return of Uncle Fester (Fred Armisen).

The biggest buzz about the show’s sophomore year has been around the casting of Lady Gaga, who will play a mystery character yet to be revealed. And really, could anyone go wrong with writing a role for the superstar within the Wednesday universe?

Further castings will be revealed at a future date. However, returning cast includes Emma Myers as Enid Sinclair, Wednesday’s BFF and a werewolf; Joy Sunday as Bianca Barclay, a siren and Wednesday’s former enemy turned friend; Moosa Mostafa as Eugene Ottinger, Wednesday’s bee-loving classmate; Georgie Farmer as Ajax Petropolus; and Victor Dorobantu as the handy Thing.

Last season, Nevermore Academy fell under the threat of one Marilyn Thornhill, or Laurel Gates (Christina Ricci), who manipulated Hunter Doohan’s character Tyler, a thought-to-be-normie human boy with a sinister secret identity. Able to transform into a creature known as a Hyde when prompted with the right triggers, Tyler went on destructive sprees around the grounds of Nevermore, and Ms. Thornhill attempted to use him to rid Jericho, VT, where Nevermore is set, of outcasts, aka the entire Nevermore student body. Wednesday and her lookalike ancestor Goody Addams (also portrayed by Ortega) came together to stop this plot, and they were also visited by a resurrected Joseph Crackstone, whose ring remained on campus after he was defeated and burst into flames and ash.

It’s hard to say much about Season 3 of Netflix’s hit Korean drama series without giving too much away about Season 2, which launched December 26. But [SPOILER ALERT], it’s part of the same wider story as the sophomore run, so expect a few loose ends that weren’t tied up to be taken care of. Lee Jung-Jae’s Gi-Hun will be back as will those that made it through another round of dystopian murder games in the Hwang Dong-hyuk-created tale, which shot it second and third seasons back-to-back. How will it end? Gruesomely, if I had to guess.

Percy Jackson (Walker Scobell) is setting out on his next adventure on Disney+ in 2025, though a specific release date has not yet been revealed. Season 2 will follow the events in the second of Rick Riordan’s bestselling novels, The Sea of Monsters, in which Percy goes on a quest through the titular location to rescue Grover (Aryan Simhadri) — who has gone on his own mission to search the sea for the god Pan — from the Cyclops that trapped Odysseus back in the day.

In addition to Scobell and Simhadri, Leah Sava Jeffries is returning as Annabeth Chase. New faces this season include Daniel Diemer as Percy’s half-brother Tyson; Tamara Smart as Zeus’ daughter Thalia Grace; and Andra Day as Annabeth’s mother, the goddess Athena. Courtney B. Vance is also joining the cast to play Zeus, taking over from the late Lance Reddick.

The Alien franchise is expanding once again with Noah Hawley’s Alien: Earth revving up to premiere on FX this summer.

Any Hawley production is always very tight-lipped with details and it’s especially so when working on such a huge IP. The series is set in the year 2120 follows a young woman and a ragtag group of tactical soldiers who, following the crash-landing of a mysterious space vessel, make a fateful discovery that puts them face-to-face with the planet’s greatest threat.

As members of the crash recovery crew search for survivors among the wreckage, they encounter mysterious predatory life forms more terrifying than they could have ever imagined. With this new threat unlocked, the search crew must fight for survival and what they choose to do with this discovery could change planet Earth as they know it.

And for those of you wanting to know more about the show’s star, the Xenomorph, Hawley teased, “There’s something about seeing a Xenomorph in the wilds of Earth with your own eyes. That is truly chilling to think of it moving here among us, and so I can’t tell you under what circumstances you’ll see that, but you’ll see it — and you’re going to lock your door that night.”

The cast includes Sydney Chandler, Alex Lawther, Timothy Olyphant, Essie Davis, Samuel Blenkin, Babou Ceesay, David Rysdahl, Adrian Edmondson, Adarsh Gourav, Jonathan Ajayi, Erana James, Lily Newmark, Diem Camille, and Moe Bar-El.

Deadline went to Thailand earlier this year to visit the set and will have much more to share in the lead-up to the premiere.

WWE Raw is kicking off a new era on January 6 when the show makes its debut on Netflix at its new home, Los Angeles’ newly built Intuit Dome. New live weekly programming for 52 weeks a year are at the center of the WWE/Netflix partnership.

Talent and special guest stars to appear include John Cena, undisputed WWE champion Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, CM Punk and Bianca Belair to name a few.

In a surprise reveal, Becky Lynch is expected to make her big return to the ring after eight months of being away. All the signs are there: Lynch recently attended a media event and spoke to Deadline alongside her husband Rollins, and she appeared in a new trailer tied to the January 6 premiere. At our chat, Lynch was mum about a possible return, but things are pointing towards the possibility. 

The return of Cena is notable as he’s taking his final lap before retirement. Billed as a “special appearance,” it’s not clear if he could flex some moves against anyone in the ring in the premiere episode. Regardless, he is sure to be welcomed like a king.

One thing fans can bank on is seeing a performance by WWE superfan Travis Scott playing an all new Raw theme song.

Her estranged 17-year-old daughter and a handful of friends are the only ones who can help her through this following the traumatic car accident that caused the injury. As she struggles to continue practicing medicine despite having lost nearly a decade of experience, Larsen remembers her teenage, nearly adult daughter, as aged 9. Omar Metwally, Amirah Vann, Jon Ecker and Anya Banerjee also star. Scott Wolf and Patrick Walker recur in featured roles.

A lawsuit, which the Michael Crichton Estate brought against Warner Bros. TV, arose around the series.

The spinoff adventures of Netflix’s To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before movie trilogy, based on the books by Jenny Han, will continue in the sophomore season of XO, Kitty, which premieres on the streamer January 16. New faces arrive at school and new challenges present themselves for the whole friend group.

RELATED: ‘XO, Kitty’ Season 2: Everything We Know So Far

The new episodes follow a chaotic ending to Season 1 when Kitty (Anna Cathcart) finds herself in a lopsided love triangle with two unsuspecting characters. Kitty took a big leap to attend the Korean International School of Seoul last season, both to be closer to Dae (Minyeong Choi) her long distance boyfriend and to follow in her mother’s footsteps. There, she discovers that she has a whole lot more to learn about love and matchmaking.

Season 2 will bring the friend group back together again with some new faces as well as a familiar one from the films: Noah Centineo’s Peter Kavinsky.

With more than two years between the release of Apple TV+’s Severance Season 2 and the first season, things might be fuzzy in some viewers’ memories, but the science fiction thriller series took off for a reason. Starring Adam Scott as Mark Scout, the show explores an extreme version of a work-life balance with certain employees at Lumon Industries undergoing a surgical procedure that severs their work brain from their out-of-work brain. Employees that work on the severed floor go in to work and essentially became a different person while they complete their assignments before reverting back to their outer-world selves, with no recollection of what they do for work.

RELATED: ‘Severance’ Season 2: Everything We Know So Far

Directed by Ben Stiller and created by Dan Erickson, Season 2 of Severance will hopefully provide some answers to big questions, like what exactly it is that Macro Data Refinement sorts through when they box numbers, if the trailer is anything to go by.

Five and a half years after the end of Elementary, CBS is revisiting Arthur Conan Doyle’s famous characters with Watson, a medical investigative drama which envisions Sherlock Holmes’ sidekick, played by Morris Chestnut, returning to medicine as the head of a clinic dedicated to treating rare disorders.

Rookie CIA lawyer Owen Hendricks, played by To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before star Noah Centineo, keeps getting himself in sticky situations as he can’t stop getting involved in dangerous cases his colleagues urge him to steer clear of. There will be more of that in Season 2, a large portion of which takes place in Korea. But first, Owen will need to escape the clutches of Russian assassin Nichika, who abducted him and shot his asset – and her mom – Max in the Season 1 finale.
