Domestic abuse drama Angela Black first aired on ITV back in 2021, hooking in fans with its various twists and turns, and is now available to watch on ITVX.

Joanne Froggatt (Downton Abbey) leads the cast as the title character, while Michiel Huisman portrays her abusive husband and Samuel Adewunmi stars as conman Theo Walters.

The tense finale saw Olivier arrested for GBH (grievous bodily harm), while Theo's past caught up with him, and whether or not he survives an attack by a gang member is left deliberately ambiguous. Meanwhile, Angela was reunited with her two sons, and acquired some much-deserved justice.

Fans who've already binged the first season are naturally wondering whether there will be a second instalment of Angela Black. Read on for everything you need to know about a second season.

Will there be a second season of Angela Black?

While there's been no official word on a second season of Angela Black from ITV, star Froggatt has denied the possibility of another instalment.

When asked whether we could expect a second series, the star told Metro.co.uk and other press: "No, this is a one and only six part series."

She added: "It’s a really intense psychological thriller. I think by the time we go through those six episodes, we get a very satisfying conclusion. You don’t need to revisit, I think we’ll all have been through enough shocks and surprises and twists and turns."

She concluded: "So yeah, it was very much meant just as one story."

When could a potential second season of Angela Black be released?

With ITV yet to confirm the return of Angela Black for a second season, we don't have any information regarding a possible air date yet.

We'll keep this page updated as soon as we know more.

Who could be in the cast of Angela Black season 2?

If there were a second season, we would likely see the return of Joanne Froggatt (Liar, Downton Abbey) in the titular role.

It's also probable that we'd see the return of Michiel Huisman, who starred as Angela’s abusive husband Olivier – who you may recognise from Game of Thrones and from his recent role as slain businessman Alex in The Flight Attendant.

Samuel Adewunmi (The Hatton Garden Job, The Last Tree) played supposed hitman Ed Harrison, whose real name was revealed to be Theo Walters.

Is there a trailer for Angela Black season 2?

There's no trailer yet for Angela Black season two, as it hasn't yet been officially renewed.

Angela Black first aired on Sunday 10th October 2021 at 9pm on ITV and is available to stream now on ITVX. Check out more of our Drama coverage, or find out what else is on with our TV Guide.
