The first full-length trailer for The End of the F***ing World Season 2 contains nary a line of dialogue. It also doesn’t reveal whether James (played by Alex Lawther) is dead or alive — though the odds are certainly not in his favor.
Premiering on Tuesday, Nov. 5, the eight-episode follow-up to the acclaimed UK import (which TVLine named the second-best comedy of 2018) picks up two years later, with Jessica Barden’s Alyssa “dealing with the fallout of the events” of Season 1.
The above video features Alyssa in a wedding dress, though she doesn’t look particularly happy. This may or may not have something to do with James’ fate. The only new footage that features Lawther’s character sees him bleeding out on the beach they visited in the Season 1 finale. Later, we see a bullet with his name carved into it.

In addition to Barden, the Season 2 cast includes Naomi Ackie (Star Wars IX, Lady Macbeth) as Bonnie, an outsider with a troubled past… and a mysterious connection to Alyssa.
Charlie Covell returned to write Season 2 of The End of the F***ing World, which is inspired by characters from the award-winning series of comic books by Charles Forsman.
Press PLAY on the trailer above, then hit the comments and tell us whether you think James is dead or alive.
I mean, it could be as easy as they won’t answer it, but they likely would have him be in jail and he’d take responsibility for anything they might try to pin on her. I suspect the person stalking Alyssa is probably a relative of the guy that they killed.
Netflix renews really stupid things. This never needed a second season. That awful Space show people binged watched gets a second season when everything else just gets canceled.
Netflix did not renew it – Channel 4 (UK) did, Netflix simply acquired it again.
This is one of my pet peeves. Netflix keeps getting the credit for making a number of shows when all they did was purchase the completed product. The first season of “You” is another good example of that. In that case Netflix did commission the second season, but it was Lifetime that was responsible for the first season. Netflix gets the praise when they had nothing to do with it.
