Butterfly Season 2: Renewal status, release date speculation, cast and plot details – Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on August 17, 2025, 18:30 IST Last updated August 17, 2025, 13:32 IST Butterfly hit Prime Video like a lightning bolt in August 2025, hooking viewers with its wild mix of spy games and family heartbreak. Premiered on August 13, 2025, the six-episode run left fans reeling with a jaw-dropping cliffhanger, sparking endless chatter about what's next. With no official word yet on a second season, anticipation is sky-high. Here's a deep dive into everything known so far about Butterfly Season 2, from release date estimates to cast updates and potential plot twists. Will There Be a Butterfly Season 2? As of August 2025, Amazon Prime Video's keeping quiet about a renewal. But the signs look good. Butterfly shot up to No. 2 on Prime's Top 10 list right after its August 13 premiere, and fans gave it an 88% on Rotten Tomatoes, loving the high-stakes action and emotional punches. Critics were solid too, landing at 68-71%. Streaming platforms like Amazon usually dig into viewership numbers, fan reactions, and social media hype before deciding. With that cliffhanger ending and all the chatter online, a second season feels like a safe bet—just don't hold your breath for an announcement tomorrow. Daniel Dae Kim, who plays David Jung and helps produce the show, dropped some hints in a recent chat. He's pumped about the story's potential to go global, saying it could land anywhere. Piper Perabo, the scheming Juno, also chimed in, eager to dig deeper into her character's history with David. The cast's excitement and those loose ends from Season 1 have fans hopeful, but it might be a few months before Amazon spills the beans. When Could Butterfly Season 2 Drop? Without an official renewal, pinning down a release date for Butterfly Season 2 is tricky. However, industry patterns offer some clues. Prime Video's action dramas, like Butterfly , often take over a year to produce due to complex shoots and post-production demands. Season 1, filmed across South Korea, dropped on August 13, 2025. If renewed soon, production could start in 2026, aiming for a release in mid-to-late 2027. That's a long wait, sure, but crafting a show this layered isn't quick. Fans hoping for something sooner might be dreaming, but crazier things have happened. Who's Coming Back for Butterfly Season 2? If Season 2 happens, most of the main players should return, given how the story left them. Here's the likely crew: Daniel Dae Kim as David Jung : The retired spy turned dad is the show's core. Kim's double role as star and producer makes him a lock. Reina Hardesty as Rebecca : David's daughter, tangled in spy life and family drama, vanished in the finale. Hardesty's teased Rebecca carving her own path, so expect her back. Piper Perabo as Juno : The mastermind behind Caddis slipped away after Season 1's chaos. Perabo's ready to explore Juno's past with David, hinting at juicy tension. Louis Landau as Oliver : Juno's son, now in witness protection, could flip sides again, keeping things spicy. Charles Parnell as Senator George Dawson : His political schemes tie into the bigger plot, so he's probably sticking around. Kim Tae-hee as Eunju : David's wife took a brutal hit in the finale, stabbed and left bleeding. Her fate's unclear, but Kim Tae-hee's comments about wanting more action suggest she might pull through. Nayoon Kim as Minhee: David's younger kid could step up, especially with family ties fraying. Side characters like Park Hae-soo (Yong Shik Choi) or Sean Dulake (Hollis) might pop up, but Kim Ji-hoon's Gun is toast after Season 1. New faces could join, especially if the story hops to new countries. What's the Plot for Butterfly Season 2? Heads-up: Season 1 spoilers ahead! Season 1, based on Arash Amel and Marguerite Bennett's graphic novel, follows David Jung, a former spy dragged back into the game to save his daughter Rebecca from Caddis, the shady agency he helped start with his ex, Juno. The finale flips everything: David takes down Caddis and reunites with his family, only to find Eunju stabbed in a restaurant bathroom and Rebecca gone. Did Rebecca turn on him? Is someone else pulling strings? It's a mess, and Season 2 would dive right in. Expect David to hunt for answers about Eunju's attack and Rebecca's whereabouts. Kim's said David doesn't fully trust his daughter, so their rocky bond could spark some intense moments. Juno, now a fugitive, plans to rebuild her empire somewhere lawless, making her a major threat. Her cryptic call with Oliver hints at betrayal or a new player, 'Baron,' who's yet to show their face. David's deal with his criminal father-in-law, Doo Tae, might pull him into darker territory, while Rebecca could wrestle with her loyalties, torn between her dad and Juno. The show's global vibe—Season 1's South Korean backdrop was a hit—might take it to new places, as Kim suggested. Political plots with Senator Dawson, Caddis' fallout, and family drama will keep the stakes high. Whether it sticks to the graphic novel or goes rogue, Season 2's shaping up to be a rollercoaster.

7 best twist endings of all time
What makes a successful twist ending? First of all, it has to surprise the audience. If you somehow guess the twist before it happens, then the movie failed to do its job. Furthermore, the twist has to make sense. Movies like 'Serenity' and 'Remember Me' featured shocking endings that did not belong. These twists ruined, not helped, the story. This month, 'The Usual Suspects' celebrates its 30th anniversary. The final twist in the Oscar-winning thriller is still one of the best in cinematic history. Where does it rank among all-time twist endings? Let's find out. 'It was clear whoever got that role was going to blow up,' Matt Damon said about auditioning for the 1996 legal thriller, 'Primal Fear.' The role in question was for Aaron Stampler, a stuttering boy accused of murdering the archbishop of Chicago. Edward Norton won the coveted part and, like Damon predicted, blew up, culminating in an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor. There's no proof as to what moment secured Norton the critical acclaim; the best guess is that it happened during the film's final moments. After a not guilty verdict, Aaron reveals he faked an alternate personality to get away with murder. Richard Gere's stunned look speaks for everyone in that moment. Watch on Paramount Plus If you listen closely, you might still hear Charlton Heston's scream at the end of 'Planet of the Apes.' In the distant future, astronaut George Taylor (Heston) and his crew crash-land on an unknown planet where apes are the dominant species. On this planet, apes can talk and think like people, while humans are mute and primitive. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. The makeup and philosophical themes have stood the test of time and even spawned an entire franchise that still exists today. However, the ending remains the film's lasting legacy. Taylor learning that the planet he landed on is Earth in the future remains a stroke of genius and a shocking conclusion to a revolutionary film. Rent/buy on Amazon or Apple Imagine being a child in 1980 and seeing 'The Empire Strikes Back.' After George Lucas opened your world to the wonder of a space opera in 'Star Wars,' you then learned that Darth Vader, one of the three most famous villains in cinematic history, was the father of Luke Skywalker. In today's Hollywood, twists are spoiled within minutes of the embargo lifting. But 45 years ago, you had to sit on that cliffhanger for three years before the trilogy wrapped in 1983's 'Return of the Jedi.' If this list consisted of misquoted lines in movie history, 'The Empire Strikes Back' might occupy the top spot. As much fun as it is to say, 'Luke, I am your father,' the correct reciting of Darth Vader's line reads, 'No, I am your father.' Watch on Disney Plus From a critical standpoint, 'Psycho' is on the shortlist of most influential horror movies ever produced. Alfred Hitchcock's mystery centers around Marion Crane (Janet Leigh), a real estate secretary who, after stealing money from her employer, flees Phoenix for California. Due to heavy rain, Marion stops for the night at the Bates Motel, where she meets a peculiar proprietor, Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins). Hitchcock solidified his 'Master of Suspense' title thanks to his revolutionary camerawork and haunting score. The tale also included two twists. The first occurs during a stabbing in the shower. The final twist happens near the end, when Norman, not his mother, is revealed to be the killer. Norman's sadistic smile will be ingrained in your memory. Rent/buy on Amazon or Apple The first rule of Fight Club: Do not talk about Fight Club. Apologies to Edward Norton and Brad Pitt, but we have to break the first rule for good reason. David Fincher's crime drama follows the journeys of the unnamed Narrator (Norton) and soap salesman Tyler Durden (Pitt) as they form an underground fight club. The club attracts depressed men looking for excitement in their lives. Eventually, the club transitions into Project Mayhem, an anarchist movement to disrupt the social order through acts of violence and vandalism. The Narrator disapproves of Tyler's methods until he realizes — and here's the twist — that Tyler is his alter ego. The second rule of Fight Club should be: Don't talk about the twist unless your job requires you to make a list about twist endings. Watch on Hulu The movie that inspired the list has to be near the top. For nearly the entire 106-minute runtime of 'The Usual Suspects,' Agent Dave Kujan (and the audience) attempted to identify the criminal mastermind known as Keyser Söze. Verbal Kint (Kevin Spacey) led us to believe Keyser Söze was Dean Keaton (Gabriel Byrne). Then, Kujan drops the coffee cup as the details from the random flyers jump off the wall. Keyser Söze was none other than Verbal Kint, and the moment his limp disappears remains one of cinema's most iconic images of the last 30 years. Watch on Prime Video The biggest strength of 'The Sixth Sense' is its twist ending. It also happens to be the film's greatest weakness. 'The Sixth Sense' relies on its twist more than any other movie on this list. It's hard to enjoy M. Night Shyamalan's psychological thriller and pretend like the reveal isn't coming. The twist is all you can think about, which hurts the movie's rewatchability. Nevertheless, learning that Malcolm (Bruce Willis) had been dead the entire time was jaw-dropping. It changed the trajectory of Shyamalan's career and became the new standard for twist endings.

I've Tested Countless Swimsuits, and These Tankinis Are My Vacation Favorites—From $28
When it comes to travel essentials, tossing a swimsuit or two in your carry-on is always a good idea. Summer is the perfect time to treat yourself to new vacation swimwear that's versatile, comfortable, and flattering. If you love the convenience of a two-piece, but prefer a little more coverage than your typical bikini, you'll be happy to know tankinis are trending again—and today's styles are more flattering than ever. The best part? Tankinis are perfect for mixing and matching, so you can shop for separates as well as sets. Keep scrolling for my favorite tankini swimsuits from Boden, Summersalt, Cupshe, and more shopper-loved swimsuit brands, starting at $28. Best Tankini Swimsuits Cupshe V-neck Criss-cross Ruched Tankini Amazon I recently took this Cupshe tankini on a Colorado road trip and was pleasantly surprised at how stylish and functional it was. The top provided impressive lift and support, and the ruching was so flattering, I even posted a few selfies on Instagram from my waterfall hike to Treasure Falls. I loved wearing this suit to the hotel pool, then just slipping on pants and wearing the top like a tank when I had to run back to the room or stop by the lobby bar. Travel + Leisure Carve Designs Stinson Tankini Amazon There are so many great tankini tops at Amazon, like this style from Carve Designs. Keep things simple by grabbing a basic bikini bottom and then mixing and matching with different tops. This black tankini from Carve Designs has a built-in shelf bra, removable pads, and an athletic back. It also comes with a UPF 50+ rating for optimal sun protection. One Amazon reviewer raved about its comfort, saying it was 'very, very comfortable' and 'stays put all day.' Beachsissi V-neck Tummy Control Tankini Amazon If you haven't tried a V-neck, ruched swimsuit, I'm here to tell you it's an extremely flattering style—especially in a tankini. Seriously, once you slip into this Beachsissi tankini set, you'll be ready to head to the pool or beach with confidence. I love the selection of solid tops and floral print bikini bottoms. My favorites are the sky blue top with cornflower bottoms and the light pink top with orange blossom bottoms. Tommy Hilfiger Classic Bikini Bottom Amazon If you're looking for a basic bikini bottom to pair with a variety of tankini tops, this Tommy Hilfiger is it. This classic bottom provides UPF 50+ sun protection, comes in a variety of colors, and earns top reviews for comfort and rear coverage. One shopper praised the cut of the bottom, saying, '[It's] hard to find a suit with good rear coverage. This one is perfect.' Boden Enhancer Tankini Top Boden If you're seeking a swimsuit with great support, look no further. A halter-style tankini with a true built-in bra (underwire and padded cups), the Enhancer Tankini from Boden was made to flatter. According to reviewers, the suit works well for both small and large busts, with a 38DD shopper saying it fit perfectly, and another small-busted reviewer noting, 'This tankini top is super flattering on my modest 34A bust. It fits really well without any gaping, and the padding gives a much-needed bit of shape.' Lands' End Tulip Hem Tankini Top Land's End Lands' End has gone all in on tankinis. With five fit categories (classic length, modern length, midkini length, high neck, and plus-size) and dozens of styles, it's easy to find the cut and color that best suits your body type. The Tulip Hem Tankini Top offers even more choices, with nearly 20 colors and patterns to choose from, as well as petite, regular, and long torso options. A built-in bra and adjustable straps ensure comfort, while the tulip hemline flatters your midline. Bonus: The fabric is chlorine-resistant, so go ahead and hit the pool without worrying about damage. That goes for you, too, since this tankini comes with UPF 50 sun protection. Summersalt Cinched Square-neck Tankini Top Summersalt I own more than a few tankinis, but I couldn't resist adding this cute Summersalt pick to my cart. It has ruching, and it's adjustable. Also, the wide straps and flirty side bows are fun additions. Plus, it includes a shelf bra and the elusive sewn-in cups. You can feel good about the fabric too—it's made with recycled post-consumer materials, including old fishing nets pulled from the ocean. La Blanca Island Goddess Halter Tankini Top Amazon I'm a longtime La Blanca swimsuit fan. They know a woman's body, and I have multiple swimsuits from the brand that not only look great, but the quality stands up over time. This Island Goddess Halter Tankini Top has wide supportive straps, a sexy plunging neckline, and flattering tummy ruching. And if ocean swimming and body surfing are on your vacation schedule, reviewers claim it stays perfectly in place in the water. Patagonia Cami Tankini Top REI As you would expect, REI has several sporty tankini options. I like this Cami Tankini Top from Patagonia that reminds me of my favorite yoga sports bra. It's a supportive, full-coverage top that holds you in securely for swimming in the ocean or frolicking with the kids in the hotel pool. The top is available in black or a beautiful, subtly striped blue. For the bottoms, choose from a variety of Patagonia styles with a range of coverage, from bikini bottoms to board shorts. Lilly Pulitzer Brenta Tankini Top Lilly Pulitzer Leave it to Lilly Pulizer to create the ultimate luxe tankini for looking great poolside or cruising around the resort in comfort and style. This top has a flattering V-neck design with adjustable straps and light shirring through the torso, plus removable cups for customizable coverage. The gold shell detailing is such a nice touch, too. Pair this tankini top with the Betie Bikini Bottom, a mid-rise hipster with moderate back coverage, and you're ready for an unforgettable vacation. The suit takes up little suitcase space, and it's made with quick-drying fabric, so it's super easy to rinse in the hotel sink and dry overnight. Travel + Leisure Love a great deal?
