Netflix has wasted no time in extending the journey of Running Point, announcing its renewal for a second season only a week after its February 27 premiere. The news, shared via Netflix’s official social media accounts, comes as no surprise given the series’ strong reception and growing fan base.
Starring Kate Hudson and Mindy Kaling, Running Point follows Isla, a determined team executive navigating the high-pressure world of professional basketball. The first season saw Isla facing intense challenges both on and off the court, from team rivalries to personal struggles, all while trying to push the Los Angeles Waves toward championship contention.
The season finale left fans with several unresolved storylines, including the return of Isla’s brother Cam (Justin Theroux), who is set to reclaim his leadership role after a stint in rehab. This unexpected twist has fueled anticipation for Season 2, as viewers speculate how the dynamic between Isla and Cam will unfold in the coming episodes.
The show’s mix of sports drama, personal conflicts, and corporate maneuvering has resonated with audiences, making it one of Netflix’s standout new series. Its renewal signals Netflix’s confidence in its success and potential for long-term storytelling.
The renewal was officially confirmed through the streaming giant’s social media platforms, sparking excitement among fans eager to see more of the sports drama’s high-stakes action and intense storytelling. With the first season leaving viewers on the edge of their seats, Season 2 is expected to dive deeper into the compelling narrative surrounding Isla and the Los Angeles Waves.
While an official release date for Season 2 has yet to be announced, production is expected to begin soon. In the meantime, fans can rewatch Season 1, which remains available for streaming exclusively on Netflix.
