The new psychological thriller His & Hers took viewers by storm this month. This gripping series quickly became a crowd favorite, hooking audiences with its intense plot and stellar performances. Much of the buzz centers on the perfect casting of Tessa Thompson and Jon Bernthal, whose on-screen chemistry drives the story. And that jaw-dropping twist at the end? People are still talking about it. Now, everyone wants to know if more episodes are coming.
His & Hers Season 1: A Quick Recap
Before we dive into renewal rumors, let's revisit the first season. His & Hers is a six-part psychological thriller based on Alice Feeney's 2020 novel. The show follows news reporter Anna Andrews, played by Tessa Thompson, and detective Jack Harper, portrayed by Jon Bernthal. These former lovers barely speak, but a series of murders in their old Georgia hometown forces them back together.
Old wounds reopen quickly. Anna and Jack each develop their own theories about the killer, and trust between them is fragile. The story begins with the murder of Rachel Hopkins, who is connected to Anna's past friend group. This pulls Anna into the investigation against her will.
Jack leads the police inquiry while Anna reports on the crimes. Complications arise when Anna discovers Jack had an affair with Rachel. The betrayal cuts deep. More victims appear—Helen and then Zoe—and suspicion falls on nearly every character. For a time, Lexy, played by Rebecca Rittenhouse, seems like the prime suspect, but the evidence doesn't fully add up.
The finale delivers a powerful gut punch. Lexy is not the killer. Anna is not the killer either. To learn the true culprit's identity, you must watch the series. The season concludes on a bittersweet note, leaving audiences craving more answers and more story.
His & Hers Season 2: Renewal Status and Possibilities
Currently, there is no official confirmation of a second season. His & Hers was originally conceived as a limited series, adapting the complete narrative from Feeney's novel in one season. No sequel or prequel novel exists for further adaptation.
Executive producer William Oldroyd addressed the possibility of a follow-up in an interview with TV Insider. He stated, "You'd have to ask Netflix." Oldroyd explained that the team did not plan beyond the first season, though they created compelling characters and a twist that resonated strongly with viewers. He emphasized that any decision about continuing the story rests with Netflix.
If a second season does materialize, Oldroyd noted the creative team would need to decide whether to pick up immediately after the twist or jump forward in time.
What the Cast Says About Continuing the Story
Tessa Thompson, who brings Anna Andrews to life, expressed satisfaction with the series' conclusion. She told The Playlist, "This secret will either be kept by Anna or not. And that will leave audiences to wonder. I think it feels like a perfect ending in that way."
However, Thompson also hinted at potential future directions. She suggested a new season could explore different characters, saying, "There could be another 'his' and another 'hers'. There are so many stories you can tell with the idea of dual perspectives and trying to figure out whose truth is real, or if there's any such thing as real truth."
Where to Watch His & Hers
For now, all six episodes of His & Hers are available for streaming exclusively on Netflix. The show's complex characters and unexpected twists continue to fuel online discussions. Fans remain eager for any news about a potential second installment, hoping Netflix will greenlight more of this captivating thriller.
