Will there be a second season for The Young Pope TV show on HBO? The lavish political drama series is a co-production of HBO, Canal+, and Sky Atlantic so it’s unclear how much of an impact that HBO’s involvement has on the future of the series. We do know that a second season is already in development so a season two renewal may already be a done deal. Could The Young Pope be cancelled? Stay tuned.
A historical drama, The Young Pope TV series tells the controversial story of Pius XIII (Jude Law), born Lenny Belardo, and his early days as Pope. The youngest and first American pope in history, his ascension was orchestrated by the Vatican Secretary of State (Silvio Orlando). Lenny shuns him and looks to Don Tommaso (Marcello Romolo) to share details on the motives of those in his inner circle. Lenny’s mentor (James Cromwell) stews about being passed over and his friend since childhood, Sister Mary (Diane Keaton), is flown in to serve as his chief advisor. The rest of the HBO cast includes Javier Cámara, Scott Shepherd, Cécile de France, Ludivine Sagnier, and Toni Bertorelli.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

It so off-peak and thought-provoking, I can’t wait for season 2!
I dont usually make comments on HBO’s series but this one was worth doing so. Finally someone got somethings right!
Slow to start but turned out to be excellent. Can’t wait until season two
I want to see the season 2, best HBO in a long time. I love it!!!
Loved the series…Can’t wait for 2nd Season…!
Yes! On a second season!! Season one checks all the boxes for a “keeper”…thought provoking, dramatic, beautiful and educational.

This is an outstanding series. Well written, well cast, well acted. A second season + is a must!
Anxiously waiting for second season. Please do not cancel
Can’t wait for season 2
Riveting and each episode left me wanting more. The cast is well done. Yearning for another season.
I will be disappointed if there’s not a second season. It’s a great story told extremely well.
I love it! Very smart! Can’t wait for season 2.
Loved it! I’ve already re-watched the series twice on-demand. Renew!!
Yes…. Please return
Too many great shows end without completion.
Bloodline? Please return with a 3rd season.
Frankie and Grace? Parenthood?
I’m not sure if they were HBO exclusives but you get my point
Can’t wait for season 2 of The Young Pope!
