The official poster for Season 2, also unveiled by Netflix, further emphasizes the darker tone and heightened stakes of the upcoming episodes. It promises a season brimming with political intrigue, spiritual exploration, and, of course, breathtaking action. The series, a US production, is set to drop on June 25, 2026, and is expected to be a major draw for subscribers.
