Will there be Platonic season 2?
There will! It was confirmed in December 2023 that the series would be returning for a second outing, with co-creators Nick Stoller and Francesca Delbanco saying in a statement: “We’re so thrilled to have the opportunity to tell more stories with Seth, Rose and everyone at Apple TV+ and Sony. Season two spoiler alert: Will and Sylvia won’t get together this time either.”
Meanwhile, Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+ said: “Since the first episodes of Platonic debuted on Apple TV+, global audiences have been charmed by the hilarious, wildly fun and relatable friendship that Rose and Seth have brought to life through their charismatic performances.
“We can’t wait for viewers to see these characters encounter even more comedic mayhem in season two thanks to our partners at Sony and to the brilliant minds of Francesca and Nick.”
When could Platonic season 2 be released?
We don’t yet know exactly when Platonic season 2 will be released, but given that it was only confirmed in December, we’d imagine it’s still a way off at this point.
A late 2024 release date seems like the earliest that the new season could arrive on Apple TV+, while an early 2025 release date perhaps seems more likely.
