What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the EPIX cable channel, the War of the Worlds TV show stars Gabriel Byrne, Elizabeth McGovern, Léa Drucker, Adel Bencherif, Emilie de Preissac, Natasha Little, Daisy Edgar-Jones, Ty Tennant, Bayo Gbadamosi, Stephen Campbell Moore, Stéphane Caillard, and Aaron Heffernan. The story takes place in present-day Europe and begins as astronomers detect a transmission from another galaxy. This serves as definitive proof of intelligent extraterrestrial life. Within days, mankind is all but wiped out by a devastating attack and pockets of humanity are left in an eerily deserted world. As aliens hunt and kill those who have been left alive, the survivors ask a burning question – who are these attackers and why are they hell-bent on our destruction? The survivors soon learn that the aliens’ savage attack on Earth is anything but arbitrary.
War of the Worlds has been renewed for a second season which will debut June 6, 2021. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will EPIX cancel or renew War of the Worlds for season two? The cable channel pays for the rights to air the show in the United States and that’s a lot cheaper than producing the show independently. Word is that the producing companies are already working on season two. So I suspect that, if a second season is made, EPIX will air that as well. I’ll keep my ears open and an eye out for news, and will update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free alerts on War of the Worlds cancellation or renewal news.

What do you think? Are you glad that the War of the Worlds TV show has been renewed for a second season? How would you feel if this TV series had been cancelled, instead?
Really good series like old British scifi with a slow burn, decent story and no over the top effects to spoil it.. Also, remember S1 is spread over only a week or so in real time so nobody knows what is happening, which is realistic as no communication is possible.
I found it atmospheric and addictive so roll on S2
Great show. Love it. But we need a 2 season. You can’t leave us hanging. We need to see what the connection is.
Great new show! Can’t leave us hanging with not knowing what’s the connection is. Looking forward to 2 season.
Really enjoyed watching this series, hoping for Season 2. No overly flashy CG & loud explosions with the accompanying very loud sound effects. One has to pay attention as the directors do not spoon feed their audiences. And the acting is very good as is the writing.
I would like to know how the “alien monkeys” (not the Organ Grinder) are produced. CG?
And if they are an advanced civilization why do they squeak while walking.
Please, please continue this series. Makes me believe there may be intelligent life out there after all & not necessarily extra terrestrial.
The squeaking is the limb servo motors operating.
Great series, hope there is another series
This show is like a Hollywood disaster movie meets Falling Skies…it’s absolutely worth a season 2.
Please renew War of the Worlds. We are really hooked and want to see who has the same tattoo as Emily and why have they come to earth? We want more please? More English language would be very helpful. I am legally blind and my poor hubby has a LOT of reading to do for me on this show.
Considering how season one ended, it would be a little absurd not to have a season two.
Please bring back season 2 of war of the worlds. I LOVE IT….
Please do not cancel this show! I love where they are going with this and I am glued to my seat when it is on! Please please PLEASE SEE THIS THROUGH TO THE END!
Please do not delay the season 2 production of War of the Worlds!!!!
Hope for Season 2. Enjoyed the show.
I’m really enjoying War of the World. It feels like there is still material to be explored. I’m looking forward to a season 2.
I hope there will be another season, I felt like we were left hanging. Really enjoyed the 6 episodes.
It is fantastic. Love it. Dont cancel!!
