Devil May Cry Season 2: Release date speculation, cast and plot details – Everything we know so far
Netflix's Devil May Cry animated series has taken the anime world by storm, bringing Capcom's iconic video game franchise to life with slick animation, intense action, and a rebellious punk vibe. After the explosive first season premiered on April 3, 2025, fans were left buzzing with excitement over a major cliffhanger and the official confirmation of Devil May Cry Season 2. If you're eager to know more about the upcoming season, including release date predictions, cast details, and potential plot points, here's everything we know so far about Dante's next demon-slaying adventure. When Can We Expect Devil May Cry Season 2?
So, Netflix gave the green light for Season 2 on April 10, 2025, like a week after Season 1 exploded onto our screens. That's a good sign—they know this show's a banger. But here's the kicker: no official release date yet. Bummer, right? Still, we can play detective and piece together a rough timeline.
The show's big shot, Adi Shankar, worked on Castlevania , which usually took about 15 months between seasons. If Devil May Cry follows that pattern, and word on the street is production kicked off around summer 2025, we're probably looking at late 2026 for Season 2. Expected Cast for Devil May Cry Season 2
The voice cast in Season 1 was straight-up fire, and most of 'em are probably back to bring the noise in Season 2. Here's the lowdown on who we expect to hear in the new season. Johnny Yong Bosch as Dante
Scout Taylor-Compton as Lady (Mary)
Robbie Daymond as Vergil
Chris Coppola as Enzo Ferino
Hoon Lee as White Rabbit
Kevin Conroy as Vice President Baines
The Japanese dub is stacked too, with Toshiyuki Morikawa as Dante, Fumiko Orikasa as Mary, and Hiroaki Hirata as Vergil. Plot Details and Expectations for Season 2
Devil May Cry Season 1 ended on a jaw-dropping cliffhanger: Dante, betrayed by Lady, was placed in cryostasis by DARKCOM, a government organization aiming to control his power. Meanwhile, Vergil, revealed as 'The Knight' of the demon realm, declared war on humanity, setting the stage for an epic sibling showdown. Here's what we can expect from Season 2's plot based on the finale and the game's lore:
Dante and Vergil's Beef: These twins are always at each other's throats, and Season 2's probably gonna lean hard into that. Vergil's demon alliance and war talk scream bad blood. The show's in its own timeline, but it might pull from Devil May Cry 3 's brotherly feud, with some fresh spins. Their mom's death messed 'em both up, so expect some emotional gut-punches.
Busting Out of DARKCOM: Dante's not staying frozen forever, right? Season 2's gotta show how he breaks free. Maybe Lady flips sides and helps him, or Vergil's demon squad crashes the party. DARKCOM's up to no good—probably experimenting with demon juice—so figuring out their deal will be a big plot chunk.
New Faces, Game Nods: If Trish or Nero pop up, it'll tie the show closer to the Devil May Cry universe. That mystery client from the finale could be a game character or someone new. Shankar's 'Bootleg Multiverse' thing might sneak in Castlevania Easter eggs, but don't expect Alucard to crash the pizza party.

Bay Area artists turn down S.F. Boiler Room show, throw their own party instead
When Jorge Courtade first started DJing in 2016, he aspired to perform for Boiler Room, a popular online music broadcaster founded in London in 2010 and credited with bringing the underground music scene to the masses through livestreamed performances. 'In the underground, people are very mindful of how dance music fits into the global political context,' said Courtade, also known to the Bay Area's event scene as DJ Juanny. But Courtade doesn't think Boiler Room's new owners align with that ethos. So, when he was approached by Boiler Room in March to play a show in San Francisco on June 6 — after performing for them in 2022 and 2024 — he says he turned it down. Instead, Courtade joined a group of Bay Area artists and studios including DJ Fridge, Lower Grand Radio, Program SF and SafariiiCamp, to protest the show by throwing their own counter event called Bay Area Solidarity Strike. 'Our decision was primarily focused on Boiler Room's involvement in Israel and direct support for what ended up being, to me, a genocide,' Courtade said. The global underground music scene prides itself on counterculture. Some of Boiler Room's most-watched streams include Yousuke Yukimatsu, a Japanese DJ who left his construction job to pursue music after he was diagnosed with brain cancer, and Kaytranada, whose 2013 performance became a career-defining moment for the Canadian producer. That renegade spirit is what made people like Courtade fall in love with the scene and look up to places at its cutting edge like Boiler Room. But lately, the subgenre has been reckoning with the increasing ubiquity of private equity, which has been investing in everything from public utilities like water to music, sometimes to damaging effect. In January, Boiler Room was acquired by Superstruct Entertainment, whose parent company is the private equity firm Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. The acquisition prompted a slew of artists to withdraw from events with ties to Superstruct, citing KKR's investments in the fossil fuel industry, the defense industry, Israeli tech companies and ties to a company accused of contributing to human rights abuses in the West Bank. 'Boiler Room feels like a giant corporate entity that's still trying to masquerade as part of the underground, but it's extracting value from our positions as community members,' said DJ Fridge, also known as Benjamin Cook. 'And then that value is eventually going upstream to KKR.' Boiler Room did not respond to the Chronicle's request for comment. But since the acquisition, the entity has shared its stance via social media. KKR 'has investments that categorically do not align with our values,' Boiler Room posted on social media in March. 'We are also unable to divest because we have no say in our ownership. … We will always remain unapologetically pro-Palestine.' Cook said it's a layered situation since Boiler Room has made statements in support of Palestinians — and Cook wants to make a distinction between staff and owners. 'We want to be clear that we're not trying to bash on the employees,' Cook said. 'But you also have to recognize that when they first sold their company, they gave up that control to a … disgusting entity.' Boiler Room's San Francisco show earlier this month never came to fruition after artists refused their offers, Cook and Courtade said. Instead, the DJs helped organize a show on the same date at the workspace SafariiiCamp in Oakland, where zines and projectors detailed KKR's investments. 'We kicked Boiler Room out the Bay Area,' read a post on social media by the event's organizers, who said they raised $9,050. The funds, they say, went to artists who had dropped out of Boiler Room's event, to the Middle Eastern Children's Alliance, to eSIM cards for Gazans and to the organization Ravers for Palestine.

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Ed Sheeran has unveiled an official song of the upcoming F1 movie called 'Drive' on Instagram and shared that working on a project related to Formula One was "a match made in heaven." Set to release on June 25 (June 27 for North America), F1 promises fans to instantly connect with the sport, given the strong emphasis on authenticity while filming. The story is about a veteran driver, Sonny Hayes, played by Brad Pitt, who returns to an underdog F1 team to mentor a young driver, portrayed by Damson Idris. Co-produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and directed by Joseph Kosinski, famous for his work on Top Gun: Maverick, F1 promises high-speed drama while keeping F1 realism in check.

Ed Sheeran poses for a photo outside the Oracle Red Bull Racing garage prior to Sprint Qualifying ahead of the F1 Grand Prix of Miami at Miami International Autodrome on May 03, 2024 in Miami, Florida. MoreWhile critics have weighed in on the F1 movie, very little has been spoken about the official song and the artists who composed it. Now, Ed Sheeran has opened up about his song 'Drive,' sharing how he enjoys making songs for movies and how his past association with F1 just made everything better. He wrote: "I got asked to do a song for the F1 movie. I knew that I wanted to make a proper rock song for it, a proper driving song. something you'd wanna turn up to the fullest amount whilst driving. I wrote it in the studio with Blake Slatkin and John Mayer, then we got Pino Palladino and Dave Grohl to be the final jigsaw pieces of the song. Pure dream team for the genre of rock, and I really feel what we created fits the scene in the movie so well. [sic] "I LOVE making songs for movies, ever since I did I See Fire for The Hobbit. It really lets me as a movie fan, behind the curtain, help create the perfect song for a scene in a movie. Movies and art are the only hobbies outside of music I really have, and I love my time at the F1 whenever I get to go play there. So this was like a match made in heaven. I'm so honoured to work with such great musicians on it, and hope you guys love the end result. drive out now" [sic] Ed Sheeran performed at the 2024 Miami Grand Prix last year and revealed that he was a big F1 fan. However, most of his knowledge about the sport came from Netflix's Drive to Survive docuseries, which he described as the "best crash course" for F1. He said: "I watched all of Drive to Survive and I guess that's like the best crash course that you can do in it is just watch that and most people that I know that love it now are into it through that. "I'm just about to do the hot lap with George Russell which will be fun. I met Verstappen last time who was lovely. I'm meeting Leclerc later and yeah, it's good."
