Hightown season 2 is setting more stories in the future, based on what happened in the season 1 finale. The series has delivered intense stories, including drama and mystery. It has a lot to offer and the good news is that we don't have to worry about its future as Starz already renewed the second installment.
Prior to the arrival of season 1 finale, Starz renewed Hightown season 2. The network likely recognized that a lot of viewers are watching the series. However, we have to wait for a while as the show won't be coming back anytime soon on the small screen.
While the renewal is already certain, the official release date is still hanging up in the air. The series has been impacted by the global health crisis, so we could expect some changes. It would be difficult to start production at the moment, considering the situation.
Filming would not also start immediately because of other reasons. For instance, it takes some time to get the scripts together. Cast and crew could probably start working on Hightown season 2 either later this year or in early 2021.
Hence, we could see the series back on the small screen sometime next year. It will probably premiere in summer 2021, but it things get further delayed, be could expect it release in the fall. And once the new installment arrives, more interesting stories are coming.
The season 1 finale sets up more stories in Hightown season 2. For instance, Frankie's story wasn't properly tied and it needs to be addressed in the future. Also, because of what Renee did, the entire case crumbled -- and Ray blamed himself.
Due to the CI reports Ray continues filing, Renee felt used by him. He made her feel like she was just a tool for him. That's the reason why Renee captured the camera footage of Ray that caused him to lose everything. Now, he's stuck dealing with his new job and the loss of his career.
But in the midst of all of these, Jackie found some victories. It looks like Alan is working and helping her to have more of an active work moving forward. She's also doing her best to be better and stay sober. But then, new problems could arise once the new installment arrives.
Hightown season 2 features a new different era now. We're going to see most of the characters dealing with new problems while also trying to solve the old ones. Jackie and Ray's storylines will still be followed, but the story could also shift to some new adversaries.
