Disney+ and Hulu’s The Artful Dodger has been renewed for season two, Deadline exclusively reports.

According to Deadline, main Thomas Brodie-Sangster (Maze Runner, Love Actually), who portrays the charming Jack Dawkins, David Thewlis (KAOS, Enola Holmes), who portrays Fagin, and Maia Mitchell (Teen Beach Movie, The Fosters), who portrays Lady Belle Fox, are all confirmed to return.

According to a statement shared with Deadline, the streamers state that the main leads will be joined by “several new faces in exciting cameos,” as the Australian and New Zealand newest cast members are currently a mystery.

According to Deadline, filming for the second season of The Artful Dodger will begin sometime in 2025 back at Callan Park in Sydney.

According to the statement shared with Deadline, the streamers share that, the series will pick up from where the “heart’s desires of Dodger, Fagin, and Lady Belle left off, promising more cunning thievery, snappy humor, life-and-death surgeries, and romance with a twist.”

Furthermore, according to Deadline, the series’ upcoming season is described by the streamer’s statement as, “an irreverent follow-up to Dickens ‘Oliver Twist’, exploring his adult double life in the far-flung penal colony of Port Victory, Australia.”

According to Deadline, Disney+ shared that The Artful Dodger was its strongest-performing Australian original. Also, the series was well-received internationally by critics and fans alike.

“The return of our Australian-born Disney+ Original scripted drama, complete with all-star cast and a brilliant crew, is a testament to the series’ high caliber of production and its local and international audience success,” Watson-Wheeler continued via Deadline. “We’re delighted this high-stakes romantic drama of heists, comedy, and beautifully complicated life and love, will thrill and entertain again.”
