Speaking backstage at the Golden Globes, he revealed that while it&#8217;s still in the early stages, they intend to release <a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/adolescence-season-2-sequel-story-netflix-update\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Adolescence season 2<\/a> in a few years. Check out his comments below:<\/p>\n<p>I cannot answer that question because it\u2019s somewhere in the deep recesses of my mind and Jack\u2019s mind, and we\u2019ll pull it out in three or four years, so stay tuned.<\/p>\n<p>Along with being a co-creator of Adolescence, Graham also stars in the Netflix series. He portrays Eddie, the father of <a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/adolescence-owen-cooper-explains-staying-grounded-success\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Jamie Miller (Owen Cooper)<\/a>. The critically acclaimed show follows the story of Jamie, a troubled teenager who gets arrested for killing his classmate. Adolescence also features Erin Doherty, Kaine Davis, Ashley Walters, Faye Marsay, Am\u00e9lie Pease, and Austin Haynes.<\/p>\n<p>While Graham was very cryptic in his response regarding Adolescence season 2, next to nothing is known about the upcoming chapter. However, there has been a lot of online speculation about what a second installment could be about. Many fans on social media said that they would love to see the victim&#8217;s parents&#8217; side of the story and what they were going through during the events of season 1. Others suggested that it could be an anthology series, and the next story will revolve around an entirely new group of characters.<\/p>\n<p>The series won several awards at the Golden Globes. Breakout actor Cooper took home the award in the supporting actor category, while Erin Doherty won best supporting actress for her portrayal of therapist Briony Ariston, and Graham won the best actor category for his role. Adolescence also received the Best Limited Series award.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/golden-globes-2026-winners-list\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">The Golden Globes<\/a> isn&#8217;t the only awards show that Adolescence dominated. The show earned 13 nominations and 8 wins at The Emmys. Beyond critical acclaim, the series has also proven to be a massive success among general audiences. It ranked second as Netflix\u2019s most-watched English-language series ever, amassing more than 146 million views within the first 3 months of its release.<\/p>\n<p>Adolescence season 1 is available to stream on Netflix.<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"960\" height=\"1440\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Adolescence 2025 TV Show Poster\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/adolescence-2025-tv-show-poster.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/adolescence-2025-tv-show-poster.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                                            Release Date<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMarch 13, 2025<\/p>\n<p>                                            Network<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNetflix<\/p>\n<p>                                            Directors<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPhilip Barantini<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Adolescence co-creator Stephen Graham announced that season 2 is in the works.
