Pip Fitz-Amobie is officially back on the case and we don’t have much longer to wait. After a tease yesterday, Netflix and BBC have announced the highly anticipated second season A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder Will premiere globally on Wednesday, May 27.
Following the tremendous success of the first season – which became one of BBC iPlayer’s most-watched titles for young adults and a huge global hit for Netflix – fans have been eagerly awaiting news of Pip’s next mystery. We’ve been tracking the show’s progress ever since Netflix officially renewed the series, and now we finally have a date to mark on our calendars, as well as a final list of all the new cast members!
The release date announcement may not be a big surprise, considering some of the cast took to social media yesterday to tease something that was coming soon:
What to know about A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder Season 2
We’ll have a full preview in due course, but here’s a quick recap:
The official synopsis for Season 2 reads, “After solving the Andy Bell case, Pip’s world is changed by his actions, and not always for the better. Pip is determined to fix the fallout – and stay away from any investigation. But as Max Hastings’ trial approaches, key witness Jamie Reynolds suddenly disappears and Pip finds himself in a race against time to find him. This new mystery throws Pip into the unexpected. Will takes her places as she struggles with the idea of justice, and goes astray from the ‘good girl’ she once was.
Wednesday Breakout star Emma Myers is, of course, returning to lead the series as Pip Fitz-Amobie, alongside Zain Iqbal as Ravi Singh.
