Now that viewers have had a chance to binge through all six episodes of Wolf on BBC iPlayer, thoughts are turning to the potential for a second season.

Given the detective series already set up, there would certainly seem to be potential for Jack Caffery to jump on another case – while mysteries surrounding his own personal backstory are still to be fully unveiled.

But what have we heard so far about the potential for Wolf to return, when would a second season be released and who from the cast would be back to star?

Read on for everything you need to know about Wolf season 2.

It hasn’t been confirmed just yet whether Wolf will be back for a second season, but based on the end of the first, there is definitely scope for the series to continue.

The first season ended on a cliffhanger, as it became clear that Jack’s brother survived longer than at first thought – and may even still be alive.

There are also plenty of other Jack Caffery stories from Mo Hayder that could be adapted, although these would come from earlier books in the series.

It’s hard to say exactly when a second season of Wolf would be released, given that it has yet to be officially confirmed. We’d imagine that the absolute earliest it could arrive would be in a year from now, so around August 2023, although a later date in late 2023 or early 2024 might be more likely.
