Renewed Or Cancelled?
Conversations with Friends is the latest Hulu original series, following on the tails of its highly successful predecessor, Normal People. If Frances’ heart-wrenching drama spoke to you at all, you may be wondering if this Sally Rooney adaptation is getting renewed for another season.
What is Conversations with Friends about?
Conversations with Friends is a romantic drama centering the life and loves of college student and writer, Frances (Alison Oliver). Based on the novel by Sally Rooney, the Hulu series follows Frances’ complex relationship with her ex-girlfriend-turned-best-friend, Bobbi (Sasha Lane). When the students develop a friendship with older couple Melissa (Jemima Kirke) and Nick (Joe Alwyn), Frances and Nick complicate this dynamic by having an affair. We have coverage for Conversations with Friends across the site, including episode recaps. Feel free to check that out HERE!
Has Conversations with Friends been renewed for season 2?
At the time of writing, Conversations with Friends has not been renewed for a second season. The season finale gave us a pretty conclusive ending to Frances’ story. Added to that, the show is based on a book that ends much the same way–and the book has no sequel. There’s certainly potential for a second season that details what happens next in the polyamorous relationships between Bobbi, Frances, Nick, and Melissa. However, we still predict that Conversations with Friends will not be renewed for a second season. We’ll be sure to update this section with accurate details over the coming weeks and months when we know more!
What we know about season 2 so far:
Hulu has not green-lit a sequel to Conversations with Friends, but that doesn’t mean a spin-off is off the table. Still, if Hulu is going to try its hand at more Sally Rooney adaptations, it will likely turn to Rooney’s other novel before giving Conversations with Friends a sequel. Her latest book, Beautiful World, Where are You, was released last year and could benefit from another Hulu/Alice Birch team-up. We’ll be sure to update this page in the future when more information is known! Would you like to see Conversations with Friends return for a second season?
