Release Date
Sometime back in 2019, there came news from the writer’s room of the show “Taboo.” That they are done writing the script for the Season 2 of the show.
With this good news, the makers were very excited. And they had announced that they soon would begin the shooting for Season 2 in the year 2020.
However, the same could not happen due to the outbreak of the Coronavirus. And after taking the current situation into account. The possibility of resuming the filming of Taboo Season 2 seems quite bleak.
Also, since the show is set in the pre-production model, it will take a long, long time until Season 2 is released. Most Probably it might hit our TV screens sometime late in the year 2021.
What Is the Storyline?
Season 2 will be in continuation of the previous season. The first season ended with James and his friends sailing somewhere.
But where they are sailing to is still unknown. So this mystery will be solved in Season 2. The makers have been quite discreet about the Season 2 storyline. So we don’t know what will be happening in the upcoming season.
But the one thing that makers have clearly stated that Season 2 will be packed with some mind-blowing action and exciting Storyline.
