Lockwood & Co. is an adolescent fantasy show about two boys and a talented girl who go ghost hunting in London. The group faces off against otherworldly foes while gradually learning the truth behind a secret that will alter the future of humanity.
The Netflix series was announced in 2017 but is based on a best-selling series of young adult fantasy novels. Production on the show didn’t begin until the summer of 2021, and it’s almost ready to debut on the streaming service now, 18 months after filming began. Everything we know about the Lockwood & Co. series on Netflix so far is as follows:
Lockwood & Co., a new Netflix original series, has recently been released. This new series, adapted from the novels by Johnathan Stroud and created by the same team behind for 2011’s Attack the Block, is a throwback to the popular trend of supernatural YA shows in the early 2010s.
In a world tormented by ghosts, three teenagers come together as paranormal investigators, risking what little they have to unravel a nefarious scheme, according to the official Netflix synopsis.
Since the series’ plot hasn’t been completely resolved, and since the show has been a source of excitement for many viewers, the question naturally arises: will there be a Season 2?
Plot Of Lockwood and Co.
The official plot summary for Lockwood and Co. is provided below.

Lockwood and Co. Season 2
As of this writing, Netflix had not announced whether or not the teen fantasy series would return for a second season. Since Lockwood & Co. has just been released on streaming services, this also makes sense. According to what we know, Netflix needs to gauge public reaction to the show for some time before making any decisions.
Then, when Netflix has had a month or so to evaluate the show’s popularity. The streaming service is expected to officially announce whether or not Season 2 will be produced. When deciding whether or not to keep a show on its streaming service. Netflix often considers how many people watched the premiere episode in the first month.
The likelihood of a show being renewed increases if it receives more viewers in its first month. Due to the significance of the completion rate, the complete season must be viewed. Importantly, many shows have been terminated by Netflix due to low completion rates. You should watch the first season of Lockwood & Co. in its entirety before diving into the second.
Keep in mind that Netflix also takes production expenses into account when selecting their selections. Lockwood & Co. relies heavily on CGI, hence more viewers every episode are crucial. If the fantasy show is popular enough, Netflix may decide to keep it in production despite the hefty cost of doing so.
In light of our great anticipation, we can only hope that Lockwood and company will be back for a second season.
Cast Of Lockwood and Co. Season 2
The bulk of the following cast members are likely to return for season two of Lockwood & Co. if Netflix decides to continue the show:
Playing the roles of Lucy Carlyle and Anthony Lockwood, respectively, are Ruby Stokes and Cameron Chapman.
- For George Karim: Ali Hadji-Heshmati
- For Inspector Barnes: Ivanno Jeremiah
- For Penelope Fittes: Morven Christie
- For Annabel Ward: Jemma Moore
- For Quill Kipps: Jack Bandeira
- For Flo Bones: Hayley Konadu
- For Kat Godwin: Rhianna Dorris
- For Bobby Vernon: Paddy Holland and for Ned Shaw: Rico Vina
- Ben Crompton, who played Julius Winkman in the first season, could return as well, but only if he survives the events of the season one conclusion.
The Golden Blade, played by Luke Treadaway, is a mysterious mercenary with a connection to Lockwood’s deceased parents that will almost probably be explored in season two.

Lockwood and Co. Season 2 Released Date
Even if Netflix orders a second season of Lockwood & Co., it could be a long before the paranormal comedy is back.
The first season of Lockwood & Co. was ordered for a release date in December of 2020. The first season of the show was shot between July 5, 2021, in London, and March, 2022. It took just over two years to make a single season’s worth of content (eight episodes).
Season 2 of Lockwood & Co. won’t premiere until at least the spring of 2025.
Conclusion
The second season of Lockwood & Co. has been shrouded in mystery. A premiere date, cast expansions, and novel selections will be announced. If Netflix gives the programme the go-ahead, which is quite likely at this point.
Lockwood & Co., Season 1 focused on Jonathan Stroud’s first two novels. If Season 2 is greenlit, it will most likely adapt the third book. The Hollow Boy, and perhaps the fourth, The Creeping Shadow. If that’s the case, we likely won’t see the season premiere until 2024.
