Netflix Renews ‘Shadow and Bone’ for Season 2

Netflix has greenlit fantasy series “Shadow and Bone” for second season. Based on Leigh Bardugo’s bestselling Grishaverse novels, the series follows Alina Starkov (Jessie Mei Li), a cartographer in the First Army of Ravka who discovers that she is a Grisha (a person who can perform “small science”) with the ability of summoning light. When her ability is revealed to the world, tensions arise between the nations of Ravka, Shu Han, and Fjerda. With the mentorship of General Kirigan, a Grisha with the ability to control darkness, Alina becomes Ravka’s only hope of destroying the Shadow Fold—a region of impenetrable darkness that has stained the land for hundreds of years and split East and West Ravka. At the same time, a crew of thieves in the trade hub of Ketterdam known as the Crows attempt to kidnap Alina and win a fortune

The new season of “Shadow and Bone” will feature 8 all-new 1 hour episodes. The series also stars Archie Renaux (Malyen Oretsev), Freddy Carter (Kaz Brekker), Amita Suman (Inej), Kit Young (Jesper Fahey), Ben Barnes (General Kirigan), Danielle Galligan (Nina Zenik) and Calahan Skogman (Matthias Helvar).
