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.

Please renew for season 2, this is a great TV show
This a great show, not sure why they killed off McGovern. Looking forward to the Season Finale…episode 9. We definitely need Season 2, please. Thank you
Definitely needs season 2 on epix. Great series!
It would be a shame to cancel the program. Most of my friends are crazy about it including me!
Really enjoyed this series and hope it is back for a second series
We need a second series ! It was very interesting.please bring it back
With such an open ended finale, there has to a second series. We need, need, need to have the reason for the humanoid, how the few humans that are left conquer and retake control of the world.
Second series please please please
Why has war of the worlds on Fox stopped without finishing the story. It’s very very annoying. Fox please sort this out and let us know. Shame on you for not keeping us up to date. Not very professional.
Loved the series , can’t believe it is finished . Please make a second series
You must make an 2nd series at any cost such a brilliant program to watch much better than the BBC which was on last year
Great series . Makes you think about our invites . Bring it back for season 2
Love this show! It’s a very original and fresh twist on an old story line! Story is way better than Tom Cruise movie. Please put out season 2!
Phenomenol show. Edge of your seat writing. Reality of this show is much more possible than most realize. Trillions of planets exist. Are we that narrow minded ti believe we are alone in this expansive universe?? Thumbs UP for this avid Fan!!!
I also love the bilingual plot I don’t mind the subtitles. It gives it a very different feel to an American made show. I love all the US shows but this is unique
Great call. Interesting twists and international survival. Love the writers.
That is beacuse it is not made in the US. Its a uk/french collaboration, and tells a story rather than relying on gratuitous voilence that permeates most US dramas.
