Chris Pratt told listeners of the Happy Sad Confused podcast that the second season of The Terminal List will arrive later in 2026. He explained that the team has finished filming and is now in post production. Six of the eight episodes are already locked, and the final two are being polished.
The crew wrapped filming in October 2025 after a global shoot that visited South Africa, North America and Morocco. The schedule allowed the show to capture authentic locations and keep the story fresh. By finishing early, the team gave themselves a solid window for editing and visual effects.
Why the Gap Between Seasons Is So Long
Fans have asked why there is a four year gap between the first and second seasons. The answer lies in Pratt’s busy calendar. After the success of Season 1 in 2022 he starred in The Super Mario Bros Movie, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3, The Garfield Movie and The Electric State. Amazon also released the prequel series The Terminal List Dark Wolf, which ended in September 2025. Those projects filled the time while the new season was being made.
Expected Release Window
Based on the post production timeline of the first season, which took eleven months, experts predict that Season 2 will land between September and October 2026. This window gives the team enough time to finish the last two episodes and market the show properly.
Potential Guest Appearance Sparks Excitement
During the interview Pratt hinted that he would love to see his father in law Arnold Schwarzenegger appear on the series. He said fans of the original book will recognize the character he has in mind. While no official casting has been announced, the idea adds extra buzz for the upcoming season.
What Fans Can Expect From the New Episodes
The second season will keep the action thriller tone that made the first season a hit. With eight episodes total, viewers will see deeper character arcs and new global threats. The show promises more intense combat scenes, tighter storytelling and expanded world building.
Final Thoughts
Chris Pratt’s update gives fans a clear idea of when to expect The Terminal List Season 2. The September to October 2026 window feels realistic given the production timeline and Pratt’s commitments. Keep an eye on Amazon Prime Video for the official announcement and trailer releases.
