Geek Girl season 2: Release window, cast and latest news

While it wasn't clear if a second season would be greenlit by the streamer, there is some exciting news for fans of the Holly Smales books and adaptations - because season 2 is on the way!

"I'd love for people to want to know what happens to Harriet next, and I'd love to revisit Harriet," star Emily Carey told RadioTimes.com prior to the renewal.

"She was so much fun [to play]. And this cast is one of the best casts I've ever worked with. I know it's so cliché and every actor says this about their show, but it is like a family. We all get along so well and I adore them. We had the best summer.

"And so the thought of being able to do that again is very exciting."

Read on for everything we know so far about Geek Girl season 2.

Has Geek Girl been renewed for season 2?

Yes, Netflix has recently confirmed that Geek Girl will return for season 2.

Filming is set to commence this summer, with new episodes to be released in 2026.

Showrunner and RubyRock creative director Zoë Rocha said of the renewal: "I am beyond excited that Geek Girl has been recommissioned for a second season by Netflix. The amazing audience reaction to season 1 was truly incredible, and we can’t wait to bring this next chapter to life.

"I'm thrilled to be working with Holly [Smale] and Emily [Carey] again, and that Boat Rocker has come onboard, to continue to build and expand the fabulous Geek Girl universe.

"Let's see what magic Harriet Manners can sprinkle on to the fashion world this time round."

When will Geek Girl season 2 air?

Netflix has announced new episodes will be released in 2026, but an exact month is yet to be confirmed.

Who is returning for Geek Girl season 2?

Alongside Carey as Harriet, Netflix has confirmed the following to be returning for season 2:

• Liam Woodrum as Nick Park
• Emmanuel Imani as Wilbur Evans
• Tim Downie as Richard Manners
• Jemima Rooper as Annabel Manners

Other characters who could return are Natalie Grey (Rochelle Harrington), Zac Looker (Toby Pilgrim), Yuji Lee (Sandra Yi Sencindiver), Jude Paignton (Sarah Parish), who was fired by Yuji, Poppy Hepple-Cartwright (Daisy Jelley), Lexi (Mia Jenkins), Betty (Hebe Beardsall), Mr J Fiennes (James Murray), Miss Lord (Alana Boden) and Maia Grey (Hersha Verity).

And it's likely we'll meet some new faces, too.

What could happen in Geek Girl season 2?

It was all's well that ends well at the end of season 1.

Harriet closed Yuji's show – despite Poppy trying to sabotage her – and she's also now the face of the designer's latest campaign, with her modelling career finally getting started after one or two hiccups along the way.

If season 2 does get the nod, expect plenty more catwalks and photoshoots.

Harriet and Nick are also now officially an item – and a very cute pair, we should add. Their relationship is currently going from strength to strength after a very public kiss at Yuji's show, and the series also wrapped up with them locking lips in central London.

But we predict some hurdles for the lovers now Geek Girl is renewed (this is a drama, after all).

And while Harriet was able to overcome her anxieties during Yuji's show, that will, of course, continue to rear its head because it's a part of her.

But having defeated enemies Jude, Poppy and Lexi and learning to own what makes her different, Harriet now knows she is capable of anything.

Is there a trailer for Geek Girl season 2?

A trailer is yet to be unveiled, but it is likely it'll be released in the month leading up to the premiere.

Geek Girl season 1 is available to stream now – sign up for Netflix from £5.99 a month. Netflix is also available on Sky Glass and Virgin Media Stream.
