15th March, Mumbai: The wait is over! After almost two years since its premiere, Netflix’s beloved drama adventure series, Shadow & Bone, is back with a brand new season. The highly anticipated latest instalment will be available to stream on 16 March. The drama is based on Leigh Bardugo’s Best selling YA novel series, Shadow and Bone, and Six Of Crows. Season 1 cast included Jessie Mei Li (Alina Starkov), Ben Barnes (General Kirigan), Archie Renaux (Mal Oretsov), Freddy Carter (Kaz Brekker), Kit Young (Jasper Fahey), Amita Suman (Inej Ghafa), Danielle Galligan (Nina Zenik), and Calahan Skogman (Matthias Helvar) as the main characters. In season 2 we will see the introduction of two new cast members, Jack Wolfe (Wylan Van Eck) and Patrick Gibson (Nikolai Lantsov. The series is directed by Lee Toland Kreiger and Written by Eric Heissener.
The show follows the protagonist, orphan mapmaker Alina Starkov (Jessie Mei Lil). Taking place in a fictional world called Ravka, Alina discovers that she is one of the Grishas, incredibly powerful beings blessed with magic. Alina must use this newfound power of hers to destroy the shadow fold, an evil entity that separates Ravka from other regions. But as Alina works to master her power, she discovers that sinister forces are plotting against her. The storyline of The Crows, a group of six outcasts and criminals, which ran parallel to the storyline of Alina in season 1, will also be continued in season 2.
Promotion for the show has been in high swing ever since the official announcement by Netflix dropped a couple of months ago. Character-based posters are being dropped to maintain the hype. The newest posters feature mastermind and leader of the Six Crows, Kaz Brekker (Freddy Carter), and the skilled spy Inej Ghafa (Amita Suman). The cast also attended the series premiere held at Tudum Theatre in Los Angeles on 9 march.
Season 1 ended leaving fans both anxious and excited. With Alina’s future still uncertain, it will be exciting to see where Alina and The Crow’s journey goes.
