3 Body Problem Season 2 Release date: When will new episodes air? Four new character revealed
Netflix has officially commenced filming the second season of its high-concept science fiction series 3 Body Problem , a project helmed by Game of Thrones showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. With cameras set to roll in Hungary, marking a notable shift from the UK locations used in Season 1, the platform has confirmed major new developments, including the addition of four significant characters who are expected to reshape the show's trajectory. The streamer's flagship sci-fi property, adapted from Liu Cixin's Hugo Award-winning trilogy, continues to evolve, both in narrative scope and behind-the-scenes heft. Acclaimed Game of Thrones director Miguel Sapochnik joins the fold for Season 2, alongside House of the Dragon cinematographer Catherine Goldschmidt, signalling a return of familiar creative forces. Following initial speculation earlier this year, it is now confirmed that Seasons 2 and 3 of 3 Body Problem will be filmed back-to-back in Hungary, as per a report by What's On Netflix. The strategic move is aimed at streamlining production timelines and maximizing continuity for the sprawling science fiction tale. While Netflix has yet to disclose a fixed timeline, sources suggest Season 2 could wrap by January 2026, with final scenes for Season 3 potentially completing as late as August 2027, as mentioned in a report by What's On Netflix. A production hiatus between seasons is also anticipated. This dual-season approach comes as the platform intends to bring the adaptation to its conclusion with Season 3, aligning with the structure of Liu Cixin's original Remembrance of Earth's Past trilogy. In a significant casting update, four new characters have been confirmed for 3 Body Problem Season 2 , two in leading roles and two in recurring capacities, as per a report by What's On Netflix. Captain Van Rijn (Lead): A formidable military figure in her 40s, Captain Van Rijn is described as physically adept, mentally sharp, and unwavering in leadership. Claudia Doumit, known for her breakout performance in The Boys , has been tapped to portray the character.

Netflix cancels two of the biggest shows of 2025 and fans are disgusted
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Netflix has cancelled two of the biggest shows of 2025 and fans are disgusted. According to reports featured in Deadline and Hollywood Reporter, the streaming giant has decided to cancel Pulse and The Residence. Both of these series debuted earlier this year. Only recently, website What's On Netflix named both of these titles as two of the best five performing new shows so far this year. This hasn't helped save them, despite other series such as Bad Thoughts and Bet gaining fewer views yet they have already been handed second season renewals. The Residence was a murder mystery whodunnit compared to film series Knives Out set inside the White House. Uzo Aduba starred as Cordelia Cupp, considered to be the greatest detective in the world with a strong affinity for bird watching. It managed around 15 million views in its first two weeks of being released. (Image: Netflix) It came from the creative minds behind Scandal including Shonda Rhimes and showrunner Paul William Davies. While its first series was a self contained story, it had been reported that the idea was it could become an anthology series with Cupp returning to take on new cases in follow up seasons. Pulse was Netflix's first English language medical procedural. As soon as its trailer was released to fans, it was hailed as the streamer's answer to Grey's Anatomy. It also managed around 15 million views in its first two weeks of being released. According to its synopsis, the series follows the personal and professional lives of emergency and surgical residents at Maguire Hospital, a level-one trauma center in Miami during the race for Emergency Medicine Chief Resident. It shows the aftermath of a sexual harassment complaint while the city is hit with a hurricane and an influx of patients. Despite the first season finale ending with multiple cliffhangers, fans will no longer find out what happens next.

It has apparently been placed on indefinite hiatus and it is currently unknown whether or not it would return for a second season. While Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrow led the series, like The Residence it was expected to be turned into an anthology and could have featured new characters. Fans have not taken this latest news well. Many have shared their displeasure at another round of cancellations of shows which they believed had performed well. Responding to the news, one fan posted on social media saying: "The Residence was a great show. I'm seriously not happy about this cancellation." Another added: "The Residence was Netflix's best show and one of their few worth watching, but alright I guess." (Image: Netflix) Someone else commented: "The reason Netflix disgusts me to be honest. Get into a show and all of a sudden it's cancelled. They know The Residence major reason for having low views was because of the huge success and overshadowing from Adolescence yet they cancelled it. It makes no sense." One person asked: "Pulse AND The Residence both cancelled?? What the actual F is wrong with Netflix? Two of the best shows this year. The streaming model is so f*****d up. And the execs wonder why no one wants to get attached to new shows anymore." Pulse and The Residence are streaming on Netflix.

Virgin River season 7 leaks confirm huge first for Netflix series as fans ‘uncover' Mel twist
A recent set photo seemingly confirms a game-changing new storyline for Virgin River's Mel Monroe Warning - this article contains major potential spoilers for Virgin River season 7. A shocking twist might be in store for fans of Virgin River in its seventh season, as a recently surfaced set photo seems to confirm a major new development in the storyline. Following the conclusion of filming in Vancouver for the upcoming season of the hit Netflix series, production has reportedly shifted to Mexico this week - marking the show's first time filming outside of Canada. According to What's On Netflix, the change in filming location has led to speculation that the show might be capturing Mel Monroe (played by Alexandra Breckenridge) and Jack Sheridan's (Martin Henderson) honeymoon on camera. A recent sighting of Breckenridge in Mexico appears to support these claims, sparking a flurry of excitement and speculation, reports the Mirror US. In the photo, the actress is seen sporting a red top and a floral wrap skirt, which some viewers suspect might be concealing a significant plot twist. "They're filming in Mexico right now," stated the Redditor who shared the image. "Does that look like a baby-bump? People have been saying so on Instagram." If Mel does turn out to be pregnant by the end of season seven, it could lead to multiple babies for Mel and Jack to care for in upcoming episodes. Not only did Charmaine (Lauren Hammersley) vanish shortly after the birth of her twins, but Mel received a stunning offer from her patient Marley (Rachel Drance) in the season finale. After the couple initially lined up to adopt Marley's baby backed out, she's now certain that Mel is the only viable candidate to assume the role of parent. "So she's going to have the adoption baby, Charmaine's twins and her own (maybe) all at once," one fan responded. However, another speculated: "She's definitely pregnant! They'll adopt the one baby but not Charmaine's!"
