Will Lessons in Chemistry get season 2 on Apple TV Plus? Here's everything we know

Lessons in Chemistry on Apple TV+ is a TV mini-series that takes viewers back in time to the late 1950s and early 1960s. In the very first episode, we learn that the scientific career of the main character, Elizabeth Zott, is interrupted, and she becomes the host of a popular cooking TV show, Supper at Six. The next episodes introduce the character's past, which, mixed with the present, explains what happened in her life. Fans of the show are definitely looking forward to another season, and we are investigating if there is a chance for new episodes to be made.

Has a 2nd season of Lessons in Chemistry been announced?

It hasn't yet been a full week since the premiere of the final episode of Lessons in Chemistry, and so far we haven't received any official information regarding plans for a second season. It's important to remember that the first series was fully based on Bonnie Garmus' novel of the same title. If the creators wanted to produce a second season, they would need to devise a new storyline featuring new characters and plots.

Have the Lessons in Chemistry actors spoken out about season 2?

Brie Larson, who took part in the project, spoke in quite general terms about a potential continuation of Lessons in Chemistry. According to her, she would be able to envision it but so far no one has officially discussed it with her. In a similar tone, the showrunner of the series, Lee Eisenberg, expressed his opinion, saying that "if we have the right story, we’d love to explore it." On the other hand, the series' producer, Sarah Adina Smith, stated that the entire team knew in advance that this would be only one approach, suggesting that there would be no second season.

What could the 2nd season of Lessons in Chemistry be about?

As mentioned earlier, the story of the new season would have to be invented completely from scratch, providing the creators with ample creative freedom. In theory, Elizabeth Zott's story ends positively, but certainly, the next chapter of her life can be presented in an intriguing way. These are, after all, times of struggle against discrimination and striving for equality. Social issues could play an even bigger role in the second season.
