Apple TV+ has renewed Murderbot for a second season ahead of the Season 1 finale, which premieres globally on Friday, July 11.

The sci-fi series, based on Martha Wells’ bestselling Murderbot Diaries, has been widely praised for its sharp blend of action, wit, and emotional depth.

Series creators and executive producers Chris and Paul Weitz said:

“We’re so grateful for the response that ‘Murderbot’ has received, and delighted that we’re getting to go back to Martha Wells’ world to work with Alexander, Apple, CBS Studios and the rest of the team.”

Matt Cherniss, head of programming at Apple TV+, added:

“Chris, Paul, Alexander and the entire ‘Murderbot’ team have delivered a brilliantly original, addictive, witty and vibrant adaptation that has captured the imagination of audiences everywhere. We can’t wait to unveil what’s next for Murderbot and, of course, ‘Sanctuary Moon’ in season two.”

Starring and executive produced by Alexander Skarsgård, the show follows a self-aware security android secretly operating outside its programming. While pretending to obey corporate commands, the bot would much rather binge-watch soap operas than interact with humans—until its mission forces it to confront danger, emotion, and the messiness of free will.

Created and showrun by Chris and Paul Weitz, Murderbot has quickly earned critical acclaim, scoring a Certified Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes and being hailed as one of Apple TV+’s best new series of the year.

Expect Murderbot Season 2 to premiere sometime in 2026.
