Rhea Seehorn Promises Swift Return for Pluribus Series
Rhea Seehorn assures fans that Pluribus will be back soon, with Vince Gilligan and the team already hard at work on season 2. But viewers may have to wait until next year for new episodes.
Rhea Seehorn has given fans a bit of good news about the much-anticipated second season of Pluribus. Fresh off her Golden Globe win for her role as Carol Sturka, Seehorn shared that the creative team, led by Vince Gilligan, is already back in the writers’ room. The aim is to get the cameras rolling as soon as possible, so punters aren’t left hanging any longer than necessary.
After her award win, Seehorn explained,
I know he wants us to go as soon as possible. He's not playing any kind of game to make people wait for this. But he wants to craft the show with all the care for his fans and the people following this story that he can. So we'll get back as fast as we can,
making it clear that the team is keen to keep the momentum going.
Writers’ Room Back in Action
While the enthusiasm is high, the process is still in its early days. Vince Gilligan only kicked off writing for the new season in November, and the rest of the crew has just started piecing together the next chapter. The focus is on delivering a story that lives up to the expectations set by the first season, rather than rushing things out the door.
Gilligan himself has been upfront about the timeline, warning fans last month that,
it's going to be a while between seasons,
and adding,
It's just the nature of the beast.
So, while the team is working flat out, there’s no shortcut to getting it right.
Production Timeline and Fan Expectations
With scripts still being written and filming yet to kick off, it’s looking unlikely that new episodes will land before next year. The production schedule is tight, but the team is determined not to cut corners. Seehorn and Gilligan both seem to reckon that quality comes first, even if it means a bit of a wait for viewers.
Fans can rest easy knowing that the show’s creators are just as eager to get back to work as the audience is to see what happens next. The commitment to delivering a top-notch season remains front and centre, even if patience is required for a little while longer.
