Netflix's Forever stole hearts with its tender take on young love, pulling from Judy Blume's classic 1975 novel. After Season 1 dropped on May 8, 2025, fans were thrilled when Netflix greenlit a second season just days later on May 14. So, what's in store for Keisha and Justin? Here's the latest on Forever Season 2—release date guesses, who's coming back, and what the story might hold. Forever Season 2 Release Date Rumours
Alright, no official date yet, and it's killing me. But let's do some detective work. Season 1 was shot from April to July 2024 and hit our screens in May 2025. If Netflix keeps that vibe, filming for Season 2 could start late 2025 or early 2026. That points to a release around summer 2026—maybe June or July if we're lucky. Forever Season 2 Cast Update
Keisha and Justin are the heart of this show, so they're def coming back. Here's the squad we're expecting to see: Lovie Simone as Keisha Clark: The determined track star navigating young love and her path to Howard University.
Michael Cooper Jr. as Justin Edwards: The music-loving basketball player with ADHD, pursuing his dreams in music.
Xosha Roquemore as Shelly Clark: Keisha's supportive mother.

E'myri Crutchfield and Xavier Mills: Additional supporting roles from Season 1. What to Expect in Forever Season 2
Forever Season 1 ended on a bittersweet note, with Keisha and Justin mutually deciding to part ways as she heads to Howard University and he pursues his music career, deferring his enrollment at Northwestern. The finale, underscored by Frank Ocean's 'Moon River,' saw Justin suggest they might be ready for each other in ten years, leaving fans hopeful for a future reunion.
Since Judy Blume's novel is a standalone story with no sequel, Season 2 will chart new territory. Mara Brock Akil, the show's creator, has teased that the series will continue to explore themes of self-discovery, identity, and the lasting impact of first love. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly , she emphasized the importance of showing young people navigating relationships maturely, suggesting Season 2 will focus on Keisha and Justin's individual growth while keeping their connection alive.
