What Will Happen in the Recruit Season 2?

By Aarush Sharma On Dec 24, 2022

The Recruit is a Netflix original spy-adventure television series created by Alexi Hawley.

The series follows Owen Hendricks (Noah Centineo), a CIA lawyer who becomes embroiled in massive international conflicts with dangerous parties after an asset attempts to expose her CIA relationship.

The Recruit Season 2 Potential Release Date: When Will the Recruit Season 2 Air?

The Recruit hasn’t been renewed yet, but it’s currently riding high on the charts in a number of countries as we write this, so we wouldn’t be surprised if Netflix orders a second season by the end of January 2023.

And if that happens, we should see Noah’s adorable face again in season two by early 2024.

The Recruit Season 2 Cast: Who Will Be Back for the Recruit Season 2?

The Recruit wouldn’t be The Recruit without… well, the recruit, so if Owen Hendricks’ story is to continue, Noah Centineo will undoubtedly return for a second season.

And if that’s the case, we can probably expect the following cast members to join him:

• Aarti Mann as Violet
• Colton Dunn as Lester
• Fivel Stewart as Hannah
• Daniel Quincy Annoh as Terence
• Kristian Bruun as Janus Ferber
• Vondie Curtis-Hall as Walter Nyland

Laura Haddock, on the other hand, is a little concerned because her character Max Meladze was shot by Karolina, who turned out to be her daughter, at the end of season one.

Even if she doesn’t survive the first season, we expect her presence to have an impact on the show, most likely through flashbacks.

The Recruit Season 2 Plot: What Will Happen in the Recruit Season 2?

In the season one finale, titled ‘WTFIOH’ (AKA Who the F**k Is Owen Hendricks? ), Owen witnesses Max being shot by Karolina, a Russian woman who may or may not be Max’s daughter.

But who exactly is Karolina? Will Max be able to survive the attack? And what about HTFDOHE? (How the F**k Did Owen Hendricks Get Away? These and other questions will be addressed in The Recruit season two, but only if Netflix renews the show for another season.

In a recent interview with Collider, creator Alexi Hawley expanded on this possibility, saying:

“I have ideas for where I’d like to take it and where I’d like to go with it. You obviously hope for success, but as you can see from the ending, I didn’t plan for failure because I believe that in this day and age, you have to be bold and dramatic at the expense of everything else.”

“And you can’t be concerned about season two, season three, or anything else,” Hawley added. “You must ask yourself, ‘What is the best version of this story right now?’ And have faith that people will come. And then you’ll get another chance.”
