Viewers are speculating whether a second season of the Scooby-Doo character’s origin tale is in the works when the Velma season finale airs on February 9. HBO Max originals have had a difficult year with the streaming service cancelling multiple shows, including animated programmes like Close Enough as well as live-action shows like Minx and Love Life. Several media sites have called the termination of so many projects a “bloodbath,” and in other instances, whole programmes have been completely deleted from the platform.
Moreover, When Velma premiered on HBO Max last month, both critics and fans gave it very negative reviews. It has a terrible Tomatometer score of 42% and a pitiful audience score of barely 7% on Rotten Tomatoes. Even worse, Velma has a 1.4 out of 10 rating on IMDb, which is based on more than 66,000 fan reviews. Even though it seemed that the majority of viewers weren’t enjoying Velma, despite all of those negative reviews, a sizable audience was turning in.
HBO Max hasn’t officially made a statement on Velma Season 2, but according to Screen Rant, it could be in the works. Here is every detail regarding a probable Velma Season 2 that is known up till the streamer discloses more.
The Plot of Velma Season 2
The development of Daphne and Velma’s friendship might continue in a possible Season 2 of the show, which would also feature the introduction of another season-long mystery plot. Charlie Grandy, the creator of Velma, reportedly alluded to intentions for a slow-burn romantic journey when he said, “You don’t want Jim and Pam getting together in the second episode.”
The Cast of Velma Season 2
The primary four stars of Velma, including Mindy Kaling as Velma, Constance Wu as Daphne, Sam Richardson as Norville (Shaggy), and Glenn Howerton as Fred, look likely to return to do voice work if the show is renewed for a second season.
The Potential Release Date of Velma Season 2
Velma’s debut was delayed by over two years after its first announcement in February 2021. You won’t necessarily have to wait another two years for a prospective Velma Season 2, either. An early comeback (say, by this time next year) feels like a real possibility because the cast and creative foundation of the show are already in place.
