Will Boom! Studios and Polygon Pictures return with the infamous Mech Cadets for a second season?
Here is what we know so far.
Netflix has proved it yet again. It was anticipated that the streamer giant seldom misses adult series and movies, but it was unexpected for it to stream a kid’s animated series and garner such momentous accolades for it! The kids were in for a treat on August 10, 2023, when we witnessed the inception of Mech Cadets Season 1 on Netflix. It was sought with great admiration by the audience, who are already wondering when Season 2 will make an appearance again.
The show follows a teenager and the rest of his comrades as they join forces with giant robots from outer space to defend Earth against alien invaders. The action-packed sequences, non-linear progression of the storyline, and victories put the audience at the edge of their seats, who are now left pondering over any updates of a revival of the well-received animated action series.
If you are one of the viewers who are looming over the same questions, look no further, as we have all the updates you require on Mech Cadets Season 2 and its supposed release date.
Mech Cadets Season 2 Renewal: Is It Happening?
As of writing this, we, unfortunately, inform you that there is no word on a revival of the series by the streamer giant. Yet! We have to keep an open mind and think because Netflix usually takes a month or two to ensure a renewal of an additional Season of a series after its inception.
In that capacity, Mech Cadets only came out on August 10th, 2023, so a month hasn’t crossed since its initiation. Hence it is too soon even for Netflix to determine a renewal. However, we guarantee you will get news from the streamer giant within the next month or two regarding the revival of Season 2 of Mech Cadets.
Mech Cadets Season 2 Release Dates: Will The Strike Affect It?
This is a valid question, given the current situation at hand. The strike, with took off in the month of May, has not pushed their breaks yet and it doesn’t look like it will do so either anytime soon. This has led several leading series and productions to press pause on their schedules and go into a hiatus, and both the writers and actors are picketing for their rights in the entertainment industry. So unless a negotiation takes place and the demands of the unions are met, our series will continue to be on the back-bender.
However, we have good news for the kiddos who love watching animated series. Looks like animated series and voiceovers will not be affected by the strike, so production can carry on as it is without having to compromise on cast or writers.
So at least the strike won’t be stopping Netflix from reviving Mech Cadets for Season 2. Provided the streamer makes an announcement of a revival within the month of September, we can expect Mech Cadets Season 2 to grace our screens by fall 2024. This estimate seems accurate, given that it usually takes a year to complete production, if not sooner.
Well, you know what to do in the meantime. Keep an eye out on the social media posts of the streamer, and stay tuned to Web News Observer as we bring in fresh new updates daily so it is easy for you to keep up.
