The last time we saw Philo was when he made it clear that he is part fae. He also publicly announced that he belongs with Vignette. But we can’t help but wonder the fate of the other magical creatures that are still in Carnival Row. Unfortunately, we won’t know this until Season 2 gets released.
Carnival Row Season 2 Release Date: Any News?
Unfortunately, there is no update on when the second season will be released. But the good news is that filming for the second season already wrapped up last fall. It’s possible that Carnival Row Season 2 has wrapped up filming with this revelation by Cara Delevingne. The model/actress told Entertainment Weekly that she had finished filming for the show: “I had just wrapped on Carnival Row and I was thinking I kind of wanted to take a bit of a break and focus on other stuff. And then I got a call from my agent and she literally said, “Only Murders,” and I was like, “Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. A hundred percent.” No hesitation. No questions asked. I literally didn’t even know about the character. I just was so ready. Honestly, I couldn’t have picked a better opportunity. I really still can’t even believe it happened.” To note, Carnival Row Season 1 took nearly 17 months before it was released on the streaming service. If this timeline is followed, it’s possible that the series will premiere by the fourth quarter of the year. As of November 2022, Carnival Row Season 2 is said to be released on February 17, 2023 with 10 episodes.

Carnival Row Season 2 Story
The finale episode of Carnival Row Season 1 saw the government order where magical creatures were divided from ordinary people. This led Philo to publicly declare that he was part fae so he could be with Vignette. Agreus (David Gyasi) and Imogen (Tamzin Merchant) was also spotted sailing away in search of a safer place. The authorities ordered them to return but they refused. Merchant told Entertainment Weekly: “Imogen and Agreus get on the ship at the end of season 1, and everything is grand for the first five minutes of season 2. And then things go very badly wrong for them.” So this could be a potential storyline we will see in the second season.
