Netflix confirmed A Good Girl's Guide to Murder season 2 on November 20, 2024, sharing that the series had been renewed for a second season and that the creator of the YA book series was coming on board to write.

“I am BEYOND thrilled that we can continue Pip’s story and, this time, I’m writing on the show!" screenwriter, executive producer, and author Holly Jackson shared in a statement. "We owe everything to the dedicated fans, and I can’t wait to reunite with my AGGGTM family!”

Screenwriter and executive producer Poppy Cogan shared this sentiment: “I’m delighted to be back in Little Kilton with Pip and friends for season two, and to have the opportunity to bring another of Holly’s gripping stories to the screen.”

Speaking to Variety in 2023, producers Matthew Read and Frith Tiplady had previously shared that “future seasons would look at the subsequent novels” in the Good Girls series, and that though they hoped A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder would be “a returning series,” season one would end neatly just in case. “The season has a real end — I think audiences [are] getting a bit frustrated with not having a resolution,” Tiplady admitted before Read added, “You find out whodunnit, but Pip’s journey continues in the subsequent novels.”

A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder follows the story of high schooler Pippa “Pip” Fitz-Amobi (Emma Myers) as she sets out to uncover the truth behind the five-year-old murder case of Andie Bell as part of a school project. Andie is believed to have been murdered by her boyfriend, Sal Singh, but true crime enthusiast Pip is not so sure, so to prove his innocence and find the real culprit, she links up with Sal's brother, Ravi Singh (Zain Iqbal).

The second season will be based on Jackson's sequel novel, Good Girl, Bad Blood, and will pick up right after Pip solves the Andie Bell case. Her world has changed, and she's unsure if she wants to pursue any more investigations. However, when a witness in the Max Hastings trial disappears, Pip is back in action. “This new mystery will take Pip to unexpected places as she struggles with the idea of justice, straying even further from the 'good girl' she once was,” Netflix shared in a press release about the renewal.

The main cast of A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder features Wednesday star Emma Myers as Pippa “Pip” Fitz-Amobi and Zain Iqbal as Ravi Singh, who both returned for season 2. Also returning are Asha Banks as Cara Ward, Jude Morgan-Collie as Connor Reynolds, Yali Topol Margalith as Lauren Gibson, and Henry Ashton as Max Hastings.

New cast additions include Misia Butler as Stanley Forbes, “a figure on the fringes of the investigation.” Eden H. Davies as Jamie Reynolds, Connor’s quiet brother, who is also a popular local musician and who disappears suddenly. As well as Jack Rowan as Charlie Green, Pippa’s new neighbor, who “is drawn into the heart of the mystery unraveling in Little Kilton.”

Season 1 guest-starred Kitty Anderson as a young version of Pip, and additional casting included Anna Maxwell Martin as Leanne Amobi, Gary Beadle as Victor Amobi, Mathew Baynton as Elliot Ward, Raiko Gohara as Zach Chen, Yasmin Al-Khudhairi as Naomi Ward, and Carla Woodcock as Becca Bell. It's not been confirmed if these characters will return.

Indeed! Back in 2024, Netflix confirmed that A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder season 2 would begin filming in the UK in 2025, although they didn't share a specific date. Then, BBC announced the production start on April 8, 2025, posting a video of the cast in the first read-through for the season. Filming began on April 15 and, as announced by Emma Myers herself, it wrapped on July 16, 2025.

“Wow......another one done. Very proud of this season, can't wait for everyone to see it," the actor wrote on Instagram, posting a photo of herself holding a massive bouquet of flowers outside of her trailer, which features her character's name, Pip.

That, unfortunately, we do not know yet. What we do know is that Netflix will release the series globally, except for select territories, including the UK, Ireland, Germany, Australia, and New Zealand, where it will be released on BBC Three and BBC iPlayer. Season 2 will have six 45-minute episodes.
