The Idol season 2 sounds like a strong possibility according to one of its stars who says HBO is very happy despite the outrage and abysmal reviews.

Ahead of the season 1 finale, Da’Vine Joy Randolph teases The Idol season 2 after all the outrage and abysmal reviews. From Euphoria creator Sam Levinson, the new HBO series follows a deeply troubled pop star, Jocelyn , who falls into the clutches of a cult leader and self-help guru known as Tedros . Long before its premiere on June 4, a report criticized The Idol as "twisted torture porn," and audiences have felt roughly the same way.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Now, despite all the outrage and abysmal reviews, The Idol season 2 sounds like a strong possibility according to Randolph, who plays Jocelyn's co-manager Destiny on the show. In a new interview with Variety, The Idol star said "everyone’s intention is to have a second season" and "HBO has been very happy" with the show, though nothing is official yet.

I think that everyone’s intention is to have a second season. This was never intended to be a limited series. HBO has been very happy with it — so much so that there were rumors that we were canceled, and then HBO went on Twitter, which I think they rarely do. Nothing is official, but HBO is quite happy.

Will The Idol Season 2 Actually Happen? Based on Randolph's response, its sounds like The Idol season 2 is a strong possibility. This is despite the show being the subject of controversy due to its sexual content, while The Idol's reviews have been the worst of any HBO show in history, sitting at an abysmal 22 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Its audience score is better at 58 percent, but still rotten.
