Netflix has confirmed that fantasy drama Sweet Tooth will be returning for a second season on the streamer.

The second run will once again consist of eight one-hour long episodes, with Jim Mickle back on board as executive producer, writer, director and showrunner.

“It’s been equally thrilling and heartwarming to experience how people around the world have been falling in love with our deer-boy,” Mickle said. “We couldn’t be more excited to continue our collaboration with Netflix and keep following Gus and his friends on their extraordinary journey.”

The series, which is based on the DC comic book series of the same name by Jeff Lemire, debuted on the platform in early June 2021 and proved an instant hit with Netflix subscribers – with 60 million member households opting to watch at least some of the programme in its first four weeks.
