Netflix today confirmed the returning cast and wrap of production for Alice in Borderland: Season 2 – starring Kento Yamazaki and Tao Tsuchiya, and directed by Shinsuke Sato. The second season will be available in December 2022.

The second season of Alice in Borderland caused a frenzy in Japan and around the world when it was released in December 2020. The story follows Arisu and Usagi, who have lost the meaning of life, as they risk their lives in the hope of returning to their original world by making it through a variety of “games” that play to different character traits, such as intelligence, strength, and teamwork.

The 10 cast members who won “games” at the end of Season 1 and will be returning for the second season have been confirmed and production on season 2 has officially wrapped. The wrap of production clip includes messages from returning cast members Kento Yamazaki, Tao Tsuchiya, Nijiro Murakami, Ayaka Miyoshi, Dori Sakurada, Aya Asahina, Sho Aoyagi, and Riisa Naka — all excited to return.

Yamazaki says, “We had these really large-scale scenes everyday and the world of the show is bigger than ever. I enjoyed filming the show very much and look forward to the final production”, adding Tsuchiya, “Each shot has big set pieces, like explosions. I was able to experience it like my character Usagi, in those realistic scenes. Everyday was such a valuable experience for me. I felt it was a really enjoyable time.
