Since airing on BBC Four this month, The Gone<\/a> has quickly become the crime drama that everyone\u2019s talking about.<\/p>\n

Led by Grey\u2019s Anatomy<\/a> alum Richard Flood as Irish detective Theo Richter and Acushla-Tara Kupe as New Zealand detective Diana Huia, we follow the pair as they investigate the disappearance case of a young Irish couple who vanish from a rural New Zealand town.<\/p>\n

Across the six episodes, the investigation certainly intensified, with the season 1 finale<\/a> delivering quite the cliffhanger. It\u2019s a good thing, then, that season 2 is currently in production so we can start to piece together the larger mystery at the heart of the series.<\/p>\n

But when can we expect the second season to air? Read on for everything you need to know about The Gone season 2 \u2013 but be warned, there are major spoilers<\/strong> ahead.<\/p>\n

Will there be a The Gone season 2?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

There will be!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Gone was given the green light earlier this year by broadcasters RT\u00c9 and TVNZ for a second season. Filming kicked off in February this year in Auckland, New Zealand and is set to continue in Dublin and other parts of Ireland in the coming months.<\/p>\n

New Zealander Michael Bennett and Ireland\u2019s Anna McPartlin, are on board the second season, joined by Peter Burger and Hannah Quinn, who are directing the second season episodes.<\/p>\n

The Gone season 2 release date speculation<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As for when we can expect the new season to air, we don\u2019t have a confirmed release date just yet<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

But with production getting underway on the series now, we\u2019re sure it won\u2019t be long before a release date is announced. The previous first season was released in New Zealand in May 2023, with the series coming to BBC Four and iPlayer just this month.<\/p>\n

At the time of BBC\u2019s acquisition of the series, Sue Deeks, head of BBC Programme Acquisition, says: \u201cSet amongst the beautiful New Zealand landscape, The Gone is an atmospheric and suspenseful mystery thriller, guaranteed to keep viewers guessing until the very end.\u201d<\/p>\n

So, if that pattern is to continue, we could be looking at a staggered release for UK fans of the show \u2013 we\u2019ll keep you updated.<\/p>\n
