With the novel's story concluded, Season 2 was initially expected to adapt Hiaasen's 2016 sequel, Razor Girl , which sees Yancy tackling a new mystery involving a con artist named Merry Mansfield and a kidnapped talent agent. However, showrunner Bill Lawrence recently revealed a shift in plans: Season 2 will feature an original storyline inspired by Hiaasen's style rather than a direct adaptation of Razor Girl .

Is ‘Black Mirror' returning for season 8? Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on May 28, 2025, 18:00 IST Last updated May 28, 2025, 11:46 IST Black Mirror, the critically acclaimed sci-fi anthology series created by Charlie Brooker, has kept audiences on edge with its chilling, thought-provoking tales about technology and society. With Season 7 premiering on Netflix on April 10, 2025, fans are already buzzing with questions about the future. Is Black Mirror returning for Season 8? Here's everything we know so far. Has Black Mirror Been Renewed for Season 8? As of April 2025, Netflix has not officially confirmed Black Mirror Season 8. However, this lack of announcement isn't cause for alarm. The series is known for long gaps between seasons, with Season 6 arriving four years after Season 5 due to production complexities and the COVID-19 pandemic. Season 7 was ordered in November 2023, six months after Season 6's premiere, suggesting Netflix typically takes time before announcing renewals. When Could Season 8 Be Released? Given Black Mirror 's production timeline, Season 7 took approximately 17 months from order to release. If Netflix greenlights Season 8 in late 2025 or early 2026, a release could be expected around mid-2027. However, the anthology format, requiring unique stories and casts, often leads to longer production times. Fans may need to brace for a wait similar to the four-year gap between Seasons 5 and 6.
