Netflix's British superhero series Supacell took the streaming world by storm with its fresh take on the superhero genre, blending gritty South London vibes with sci-fi thrills. After its critically acclaimed first season, which earned a perfect 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, fans are eagerly awaiting news about Supacell Season 2. One question is on everyone's mind: Is Supacell Season 2 releasing in June 2025? Here's everything we know so far about the upcoming season. Is Supacell Season 2 releasing in June 2025?
Good news for fans: Supacell Season 2 is officially happening! Netflix confirmed the renewal on August 13, 2024, following the massive success of Season 1, which garnered 33.4 million views globally and spent six weeks in Netflix's Top 10 English-language series. Showrunner Rapman (Andrew Onwubolu) has teased that Season 2 will be a game-changer, likening Season 1 to Batman Begins and Season 2 to The Dark Knight for its darker, more intense narrative.
However, despite some speculation, Supacell Season 2 is not confirmed to release in June 2025. While one source suggested a potential June 26, 2025, premiere, recent production updates indicate otherwise. Filming, originally slated for early 2025, has been delayed to October 2025, pushing the expected release to late 2026 or possibly 2027. Supacell Season 2 Plot: What to Expect
Supacell Season 1 followed five Black South Londoners—Michael, Sabrina, Andre, Rodney, and Tazer—who unexpectedly develop superpowers linked to sickle cell disease. The season ended on a heartbreaking cliffhanger, with Michael (Tosin Cole) vowing revenge after failing to save his fiancée, Dionne, from a tragic death. A post-credits scene revealed Victoria (Sian Brooke) as the true leader of The Organization, a shadowy group hunting superpowered individuals, setting up a major conflict for Season 2.
Rapman has teased that Season 2 will dive deeper into the consequences of the characters' powers and explore darker themes. Michael's quest for vengeance will likely drive the narrative, as he travels to the future to uncover answers about The Organization. Expect new challenges, potential new 'supes,' and a focus on the group uniting to confront Victoria's ruthless agenda. Rapman has also hinted at a three-season arc, suggesting Season 2 will escalate the stakes significantly.

Arise, Sir David: But what does Beckham's knighthood entail, and what does it mean?
So, arise, Sir David Beckham, and welcome to the small and exclusive band of people from the football industry to receive one of the highest honours in the United Kingdom — a knighthood from the royal family. The announcement was made in The Gazette, the official organ of public record, as part of King Charles III's official birthday honours — one of the two occasions each year when the ruling monarch honours a selection of people for their 'significant contributions' to the country. Advertisement Beckham, the former England captain and now joint owner of MLS team Inter Miami, will be invited to an investiture ceremony to make everything official, including his wife, formerly a pop star with the Spice Girls, becoming Lady Victoria. The wait is finally over for the man she famously christened Goldenballs in his playing days, whose desire to become a Sir has been depicted at times as almost obsessional. 'Growing up in east London with parents and grandparents who were so patriotic and proud to be British, I never could have imagined I would receive such a truly humbling honour,' said Beckham. 'It will take a little while for the news to sink in but I'm immensely proud and it's such an emotional moment for me to share with my family.' Not everyone will wish to join in the celebrations, bearing in mind the honours system — described by The Gazette as 'classes of appointment' to the Order of the British Empire — is regarded by many of its anti-Establishment critics as outdated and elitist and, as such, brings some strong opinions. 'Truly deserved,' writer, author and broadcaster Brian Reade responded on X after the story of Beckham's knighthood was leaked to the UK's Sun newspaper. 'Never before has a man scraped and crawled so hard to get three pointless letters stuck in front of his brand name.' Others, however, will find it hard to begrudge Beckham after a career that took in Manchester United, Real Madrid, LA Galaxy, AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain (plus a loan spell at Preston North End as a youngster), as well as 115 appearances for England's national team and some prodigious work for charity, principally Unicef. Now 50, Beckham will be the 14th name on a list of football knighthoods (excluding administrators) featuring four former England managers — Walter Winterbottom, Alf Ramsey, Bobby Robson and, most recently, Gareth Southgate — as well as celebrated figures such as Tom Finney, Stanley Matthews and Geoff Hurst. Advertisement Charles Clegg, a former England international who became chairman/president of the English Football Association, was the first person from the sport to be knighted, in 1927. It was Kenny Dalglish's turn in 2018 and, before that, Trevor Brooking in 2004. And the other names on the list mean that Manchester United can now claim to have contributed four knights of the realm — more than any other club. One was Matt Busby, the manager who led United from the horrors of the 1958 Munich air disaster to winning the European Cup a decade later. Bobby Charlton, who was alongside him during those moments of tragedy and glory, was another. Then, of course, there is Alex Ferguson, whose knighthood was rushed through in 1999 only weeks after he steered United to an unprecedented treble of Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup. So, how does it all work? And how does the honours committee — a body made up of politicians and senior civil servants — go about informing the relevant people they are under consideration? With great secrecy, is the short answer. 'You get a few months' notice,' says Brendan Foster, the former long-distance runner who was knighted in 2020. 'An email comes through saying they are minded to give you a knighthood, and asking whether you would want to accept; and you have to keep it a secret, otherwise you're in trouble.' Foster, regarded as the voice of British athletics because of his long and distinguished commentary career with the BBC after retiring from the sport, is also the founder of the Great North Run, the largest half-marathon in the world. He received his knighthood from Princess Anne, once an equestrian athlete who had competed with him in Great Britain's squad at the 1976 Olympic Games, rather than her mother, Queen Elizabeth II. 'You think about the people who have helped you get where you are,' says Foster, recalling his knighthood ceremony. 'You think about your parents, your coaches, the guys you trained with and everyone else who helped. But you also think about the country. This is a great country and anybody who accepts the honours is, by definition, saying, 'I'm proud of the country I live in'.' Advertisement Most of the time, the knights-elect receive their insignia at either Buckingham Palace in London or Windsor Castle, when the protocol is to kneel on your right knee while the King, or another member of the royal family, touches your right shoulder, then the left one, with a bare sword blade. For females, the equivalent is to be made a Dame. After that, it is the individual's choice whether they want to use their new title. Foster, for example, says he is '50-50' about using 'Sir', though he jokes that it comes in handy when he needs to make a restaurant booking. Anthony Hopkins, knighted by the Queen in 1993, also found it a dilemma. 'I only ever use the title in the U.S.,' the actor explained. 'The Americans insist on it, and get offended if I don't.' Ferguson, statistically the most successful manager in British football history, had some misgivings of his own, despite having previously been given an OBE (Officer of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire) and CBE (Commander of the Order of the British Empire) — two of the awards beneath a knighthood in rank — in 1985 and 1995 respectively. He and his wife were worried about the extra commitments the new title might involve (although there are no special requirements) and how it might look, with them hailing from a working-class background in the Scottish city of Glasgow, to be known as Sir Alex and Lady Cathy. 'I put it to the family,' Ferguson revealed in a 2000 interview with the official Manchester United magazine, 'and Cathy was a bit, 'Oh, I don't know, what would your father think?'. And my son said, 'Mum, it's nothing to do with Dad's parents. They're gone. They'd be proud of him — you can't refuse this, it's recognition of what he's done'. We had a discussion and decided it was right.' In 2020, it was revealed that the number of people refusing an honour was 68 out of 2,504 offered (2.7 per cent), whereas there were only 277 occasions from 1951 to 1999 when somebody took that stance. So the frequency with which people say 'Thanks, but no thanks' is going up. Realistically, though, Beckham's name was never going to be added to a list that includes singer David Bowie, physicist Professor Stephen Hawking, the ex-Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone and, on five occasions for various honours including a knighthood, artist LS Lowry. The only awkwardness here is that Beckham, awarded an OBE in the Queen's birthday list in 2003, will probably never be allowed to forget the controversy in 2017 when leaked emails, from four years earlier, showed his anger about being rejected for a knighthood. The emails had been hacked from a company associated with his then-representative, Simon Oliveira, and were published by a variety of newspapers, showing him branding the honours committee 'unappreciative c**ts' and insisting he didn't 'care about being knighted'. The email exchanges also revealed the UK authorities had concerns over Beckham's tax affairs. Advertisement And now? Nobody should be surprised he has finally got his wish, bearing in mind his career achievements and several other factors that may or may not have counted in his favour. He is, after all, on friendly terms with Prince William, Charles' eldest son, and has banqueted at Buckingham Palace as a guest of the King (they are said to have bonded over a shared love of making honey). Plus, who could forget Beckham standing for 12 hours in the queue of people to see the late Queen lying in state in central London's Westminster Hall following her death in 2022? All that is left, perhaps, is to see whether the six-time Premier League champion chooses to call himself Sir David or takes a similar approach to the manager who gave him his professional debut. 'Ferguson found the title uncomfortable for a while,' Michael Crick wrote in The Boss, his 2002 biography of the Scot, noting how the subject of the book 'refused to sign himself 'Sir Alex' when asked to by a woman autograph-hunter shortly afterwards.'

Scott Galloway bluntly predicts major change for Netflix
Scott Galloway, the podcaster and New York University professor, explained his view on June 13 that the last significant battle in the streaming industry was a showdown between Netflix and Hollywood - and Netflix emerged victorious. By expanding production globally, taking advantage of broadband technology, and capitalizing on inexpensive funding, Netflix (NFLX) was able to make large-scale investments similar to Amazon's strategy, Galloway explained, leaving competitors unable to keep pace. The outcome? A major shift in value from traditional studios and entertainment talent to Netflix's investors and subscribers. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter Netflix's newest version operates as more than just a subscription-based platform - it now combines both subscriptions and advertising in its business model. And nearly 94 million people have chosen Netflix's ad-supported plan since it was introduced fewer than three years ago, according to Galloway. Netflix has proven itself to be a master of adaptation in the media landscape. It started as a mail-order DVD business, toppling the giant Blockbuster. Then it evolved into a streaming powerhouse, upending Hollywood's dominance. Related: Jean Chatzky sends strong message to Americans on Social Security Now, after a decade without major changes, Netflix is transforming once more, Galloway wrote. The company is introducing AI-driven content recommendations, mobile-friendly vertical videos, and a refreshed visual design to take on platforms such as YouTube and TikTok. And once again, the streaming service faces a new challenge. Shutterstock Having won the last streaming war, Netflix now confronts a new threat, Galloway explained in his "No Mercy / No Malice" newsletter. In fact, this prominent challenger is in the ring with all streaming services. "The next streaming war?" Galloway wrote. "YouTube takes on the world." "This year, more people in the U.S. watched YouTube on TVs than on mobile devices - a first," he continued. "YouTube is now the No. 1 distributor of TV content, according to Nielsen. And for the past three months, YouTube registered the largest share of TV viewing (12%) among media companies; Netflix accounted for 7.5%." More on the U.S. economy: Jean Chatzky shares major statement about Social SecurityShark Tank's Kevin O'Leary has blunt words on 401(k) plansDave Ramsey strongly cautions U.S. workers on Social Security YouTube is essentially public access television scaled to the internet, but with vastly superior production quality, observed Galloway. His Markets podcast co-host Ed Elson notes that Gen Z sees YouTube - owned by Alphabet (GOOGL) - as an algorithm-driven force shifting influence away from established brands and toward individual creators. The biggest disruptor to Hollywood, Galloway argues, isn't Netflix chairman's Reed Hastings - it's MrBeast, the YouTube star who has perfected parasocial relationships. In 2023 alone, MrBeast amassed over a billion hours of watch time, surpassing the top Netflix shows. "But just as individual content creators disrupted Hollywood, AI may disrupt content creators," Galloway wrote. While Netflix is expected to invest around $18 billion in content this year, YouTube effectively operates with a content budget of zero, instead sharing ad revenue with its creators. MrBeast has revealed that producing a single video typically costs him $2.5 million. Yet in a striking shift, an AI-generated muzak channel recently surpassed him, becoming the fastest-growing channel on YouTube this month. Related: Shark Tank's Kevin O'Leary makes bold prediction on U.S. economy Galloway argues that the rise of Netflix, YouTube and the competition for streaming audiences has cost us something vital: a shared cultural experience. In 1983, the final episode of M.A.S.H. was a national event, drawing 106 million viewers - nearly half of America, he recalls. By contrast, last year's most-watched scripted TV finale, "Yellowstone," reached just 13 million people, a mere 4% of the country. The shift from scheduled programming to unlimited, on-demand content has fragmented American culture, Galloway suggests - and this fact reflects the loss of two key societal pillars: collective experiences and a shared identity. "Without shared stories, we don't laugh together, love/hate the same heroes/villains, or believe in the same facts when we argue," Galloway wrote. "We lose our empathy, our ability to see each other as human." "It's hard to demonize someone you watched 'Cheers' with every Thursday night; it's easy to hate someone whose cultural references are completely foreign to your feed."
