A Discovery of Witches Season 2 Is Set to (Finally) Arrive in Early 2021 A Season 2 premiere timetable for A Discovery of Witches has finally been conjured.

Sky TV announced on Thursday that the series — adapted from Deborah Harkness All Souls book trilogy — will return with new episodes in January 2021, at least for those across the pond.

Stateside, A Discovery of Witches Season 2 is penciled in for an “early 2021” debut on the Sundance Now and Shudder streaming hubs, TVLine has confirmed.

Set in a world where witches, vampires and daemons pass as humans, A Discovery of Witches debuted in the U.S. in spring of 2019, on Shudder and Sundance Now. The series performed so well there that parent company AMC Networks later simulcast the first season on BBC America and AMC, paired with Killing Eve‘s second season. (There is no word yet on whether AMC and BBCA will do same with Season 2.)

Back in November of 2018, Sky One renewed A Discovery of Witches for a second and a third series before the first series finale was broadcast in the UK. Production on Season 2 wrapped in the UK in late December 2019, at which point the filming moved to Italy.

Digital Spy reported that Season 2 will follow the adventures of Matthew and Diana (played by Matthew Goode and Teresa Palmer) in the past, as they hide out in Elizabethan London while helping the latter expand on her powers and searching for the Book of Life. In the present, Gerbert, Knox, Satu and Domenico try to find out what happened to Matthew and Diana; Sarah and Em ally with witch hunter Ysabeau de Clermont; and Marcus and Miriam do their best to protect Sophie, who is pregnant with a daemon baby.

Matthew Clairmont’s fictional letter to Rosalind Franklin regarding what was later known as the groundbreaking #photo51 in the discovery of DNA structure. Lovely tribute! Thanks @debharkness Photo: The World Of All Souls (2018) #rosalindfranklin #womeninscience #profilesinscience

Personal note: This explains my screen name ‘Rosalyn51’ 😊

“Rosalind Elsie Franklin (1920-1958) was a British chemist and crystallographer who is best known for her role in the discovery of the structure of DNA. It was her x-ray diffraction photos of DNA and her analysis of that data–provided to Francis Crick and James Watson without her knowledge–that gave them clues crucial to building their correct theoretical model of the molecule in 1953. While best known for this work, Franklin also did important research into the micro-structure and properties of coals and other carbons, and spent the last five years of her career elucidating the structure of plant viruses, notably tobacco mosaic virus.”

Only 4 days left of principal shooting of A Discovery of Witches season 2! and it’s in Northern Italy!

On this day 1590, Matthew and Diana are wed.

It’s fitting that they marry on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception (December 8), a Catholic feast day celebrating the conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary’s soul, free of original sin. In short, Mary had special attributes that allowed her to give birth to a child that would change the world - not unlike Matthew and Diana and their ability to conceive and give birth to Bright Born children who will change the world.

A Discovery of Witches season 2 filming at Caerphilly Castle Monday and Tuesday. 

“Downton Abbey and The Crown star Matthew Goode, who plays vampire Matthew Clairmont, and Australian actress Teresa Palmer, who plays witch Diana Bishop, were among the actors filming scenes at the castle.” also Steven Cree (Gallowglass)! (Photo 1-3: my edits. 4-6 Orig. Caerphilly Observer)

The 13th century venue has been used as a filming location for an array of films and television shows, including Doctor Who and HBO’s The Bastard Executioner.

The castle was also used for scenes set in the Tower of London in The Spanish Princess, which was produced by American network Starz and was about Catherine of Aragon, the first wife of King Henry VIII.

The Grade I listed building was also used as a filming location in the 1995 Hollywood blockbuster Restoration, which starred the likes of Robert Downey Jr, Hugh Grant, Polly Walker and Ian McKellen.
