Sugar, Apple TV’s neo-noir detective series, is officially returning for a second season this summer.
The Colin Farrell-starring drama (with a sci-fi twist) is set to make its global return on Friday, June 19. Comprising 8 new episodes, the streamer will air one new episode weekly until the finale on August 7, 2026.
Sugar is a contemporary homage to cinema’s great noir private detective stories of the 40’s and 50’s, and peppered with references and easter eggs to some of the genre’s most beloved films.
In Season 2, Farrell’s John Sugar returns for a new case, tracking the troubled older brother of an up-and-coming local boxer as his search for his beloved missing sister Jen continues.

As the investigation expands into a citywide conspiracy with sinister intentions, Sugar must reckon with himself to answer the question — how far will he go to do what’s right?
In addition to Farrell, the second season of Sugar introduces a brand-new cast, including Jin Ha, Raymond Lee, Tony Dalton, Laura Donnelly, Sasha Calle and special guest star Shea Whigham.
Sugar’s second season is showrun by Sam Catlin, who also executive produces under his Short Drive Entertainment banner.
