The Irregulars follows a gang of troubled teens who are recruited to help Doctor Watson and his associates solve crimes
What about The Irregular Season 1
The first season was set back production-wise when it was halted throughout the course of the pandemic but returned to wrap filming between August and September 2020. Now, clearly banking on the show becoming a success Netflix has not only greenlit a second season but is planning to begin production this summer with filming set to take place in Liverpool in the United Kingdom.
Who is behind The Irregular Season 2 ?
Tom Bidwell is attached to the second season as writer and producer with Greg Brenman, Jude Liknaitzky, Michael Ray, and Rebecca Hodgson returning to produce.
Is The Irregular season 2 coming?
Netflix has yet to officially confirm the return of season two and won’t likely do so until shortly after the release of The Irregulars season one at the end of March. It’s not the first time Netflix has given a show a renewal ahead of its initial premiere, it has done so with the likes of Warrior Nun, twice with Virgin River, and most recently, Bridgerton.
Don’t forget Netflix is also planning on expanding more into the Sherlock Holmes universe with a planned movie which we announced back in October 2020 will see Ehren Kruger direct a new feature called Sherlock Junior.
How the story looks like?
The Irregulars is an upcoming crime drama TV series based on the universe created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The story is based on a group of teenagers who live in Baker Street. These kids are called the Irregulars, who often are known for searching clues for Sherlock Holmes. This show has a different take to the story where Sherlock Holmes was a drug addict and a delinquent. The Irregulars would work with Dr. Watson to solve supernatural mysteries in the streets of London, the credit for which is taken by Sherlock Holmes.
What is The Irregulars Season 2 Release Date?
The Irregulars Season 2 is set to be released sometime in summer 2022. If reports are to be considered true, the Irregulars Season 2 is set to start filming sometime around this summer. Considering that season 1 itself got delayed, it may very well be the situation that the team has already started the pre-production for The Irregulars Season 2. Previously, a show would take only a year or a bit more. But now, due to the pandemic restrictions, production tends to take longer. , this might even push the release date further to Fall 2022. But, if everything were to go as planned, The Irregulars Season 2 should come out by summer 2022.
