Season 2 of Firefly Lane is now production in Vancouver, Canada, following its renewal in late May 2021. We can get a solid idea of what to expect from season 2 of Firefly Lane now that a full second season has been announced and filming has begun. Here’s what we’ve learned so far.
Firefly Lane is based on Kristin Hannah’s classic novel of the same name. It chronicles the touching storey of two best friends and the challenges they experience in their lives and friendship.
The show premiered on Wednesday, February 3rd, to mixed reviews. Audiences appear to have reacted much more positively, with a 7.5/10 rating as of July 1st, 2021.
The show ranked in the top ten on Netflix. It spent 36 days in the top ten in the United States and also did well in the United Kingdom and most of Europe.
So, with that said, here’s all we know about Firefly Lane’s Netflix future.
Is Firefly Lane still on the air?
It took a few months, but Netflix has finally confirmed that Firefly Lane will be renewed for a second season.
Actresses Katherine Heigel and Sarah Chalke answered fan queries and made the formal announcement on their social media sites and on YouTube.
Because the first season does not cover everything in the novel, there is still a lot more of Tully and Kate’s journey to tell. The novel also has a sequel, Fly Away, which expands on the storey even more.
Maggie Friedman has been confirmed as the second season’s showrunner. Season 2 is expected to be directed by Michael Spiller (Modern Family, Scrubs).
When will the second season of Firefly Lane premiere?
Season 1 premiered on Netflix one year ago in February 2022, so don’t anticipate season 2 to debut this month. Season 2 of Firefly Lane has yet to be confirmed by Netflix. Season 2 is not planned to broadcast until the summer or fall of 2022, despite the fact that filming began in August 2021. Katherine Heigl announced in August that the premiere “would be in 2022.”
Who will be in the second season of Firefly Lane’s cast?
Most of the core cast should return if Firefly Lane season 2 is given the green light and starts up where season 1 left off. Heigl and Chalke are almost certain to appear, as are Ali Skovbye and Roan Curtis, who play the characters’ teenage incarnations. Johnny (Ben Lawson), Kate’s husband, is gravely injured in an IED strike while reporting in Iraq at the end of Season 1, but he’s alive, therefore he’ll most likely return in Season 2. Yael Yurman and Beau Garrett, who play Kate’s kid and Tully’s mother, are expected to return as series regulars.
However, it’s tough to say for sure because the TV show did deviate from the source material in several ways. Tully was given a love interest in the series, Max (Jon-Michael Ecker), who wasn’t in the book. Tully and Max’s relationship appeared to be finished at the end of season 1, therefore Ecker’s appearance is unlikely. To be honest, the programme could go in any number of places with Tully’s personal life.
Season 2 of Firefly Lane is now in production; when will it be released on Netflix?
Season 2 filming has begun in Vancouver, Canada, and will continue through the end of August 2021.
We previously reported that season 2 would begin filming earlier this year, with preliminary filming dates set for August 30th and production running in some form until April 20th, 2022.
Katherine Heigl confirmed on Twitter on August 24th that she was back in Vancouver filming season 2 of Firefly Lane.
Season 2 filming is now ongoing, as evidenced by several Instagram loops and posts.
Our best estimation for a release date for Firefly Lane season 2 is mid-to-late 2022, based on production schedules at the time of the last publication. Of course, this assumes that production isn’t disrupted.
In mid-November 2021, we received a brief filming update through Twitter, with the cast posing for a photo.

When was the second season of Firefly Lane shot?
Season 2 of Firefly Lane began filming in August 2021 in Vancouver and lasted through the fall. Katherine Heigl is said to have celebrated her birthday on set in November. On February 1, the show resumed following its Christmas hiatus.
In the first season of Firefly Lane, who dies?
This is one spot where Netflix departs from the text in an innovative way.
If you’ve read Firefly Lane, you’ll know that Kate dies at the end of the story. Kate, on the other hand, is still alive and well at the end of the Netflix series. Bud Mularkey, Kate’s father, is being laid to rest.
