He’s already on a roll, with his previous show, drama Beauty in Black, reaching number one on the streamer’s Top 10 after its debut in October 2024. Now, She the People is steadily climbing the same chart, a week after its release.
With only eight episodes streaming, viewers are curious about whether they’ll get more. We’ll start with the good news.
She the People Season 2 Release Date
At the time of writing, there’s no news on She the People season 2. However, we can confirm this isn’t the last time you’ll see the charming Antoinette Dunkerson.
Netflix decided to split the first season into two parts, so another eight episodes are coming our way. They’re set to arrive on August 14.
If the show gets renewed, we’ll probably get season 2 in 2026, at the earliest.

What Could Happen in She the People Season 2?
She the People revolves around Antoinette Dunkerson, who becomes Mississippi’s first Black lieutenant governor. However, her new political role comes with challenges. It doesn’t help that she has to deal with a condescending and sexist governor who seeks to undermine her authority.
On top of that, her outspoken family is no picnic, and their antics often thrust her into the media spotlight. Even so, Antoinette is determined to serve her community and fix systemic issues, which makes her easy to root for. A potential romance might be brewing as well.
Part 1 ends with Antoinette standing up for herself, but there’s still be trouble ahead, especially since viewers are left on a bit of a cliffhanger. We’ll have to wait a couple of months to see what happens next.
As for where the story might go in She the People season 2, we have no idea. It all depends on how this first installment wraps up. August can’t come soon enough.
