Man, House of David on Prime Video hit like a lightning bolt, didn’t it? That first season, with David taking down Goliath and all the palace drama, had me glued to the screen. After pulling in 22 million viewers in just over two weeks, it’s no shock that Amazon greenlit Season 2. So, what’s the latest on when it’s coming, who’s returning, and what’s next for our favorite shepherd-turned-hero? Let’s dive in.
When Can We Expect House of David Season 2?
No official word on the release date yet, but there’s some juicy buzz floating around. Jon Erwin, the showrunner, posted on Instagram about filming starting in Greece around Easter 2025. They’re building some epic sets—think sprawling biblical fortresses. Season 1 went from cameras rolling to streaming in under a year, so we are betting we could see Season 2 by spring 2026, maybe April or May.
Who’s Coming Back in House of David Season 2?
The cast is what makes House of David pop, and thankfully, most of the big names are set to return. Michael Iskander is back as David, and let me tell you, his performance gives me chills every time—equal parts heart and grit. Here’s who else we’re likely seeing:
- Ali Suliman as King Saul
- Ayelet Zurer as Queen Ahinoam
- Stephen Lang as Samuel
- Indy Lewis as Michal
- Ethan Kai as Jonathan
- Oded Fehr as Abner
The Season 1 finale threw a curveball with Sam Otto’s Eshbaal snagging the throne, so expect him to stir up trouble. Sadly, no Martyn Ford as Goliath (RIP, big guy). No word on new faces yet, but we are crossing our fingers for some fresh characters to shake things up.
What’s the Story Going to Be in House of David Season 2?
Season 2 picks up after that insane Goliath fight. David’s a hero now, but the crown’s still a long way off. The finale left us with Eshbaal’s sneaky power grab, so we are expecting a full-on rivalry with David. Plus, Saul’s paranoia is bound to crank the drama to 11. Will David and Michal’s romance bloom amidst the chaos? And how’s Jonathan going to handle his family turning on his best friend? Jon Erwin’s hinted at a multi-season arc, maybe even six seasons, tracing David’s rise from fugitive to king. We are stoked for more battles, betrayals, and those quiet moments where David’s faith shines through.
