The limited series ‘Adolescence’ stole the show at the 83rd Golden Globes on January 11, 2026. Last year, when ‘Adolescence’ was released, it broke the charts, and in the very beginning of this year, it picked up four big awards, including Best Limited Series and Best Male Actor for star Stephen Graham. His co-stars Erin Doherty and 16-year-old Owen Cooper also won for supporting roles. This came right after their success at the Critics’ Choice Awards. Fans everywhere are now talking about what comes next for the hit drama.
Will ‘Adolescence’ return for season 2?
Graham, who plays Eddie Miller, a dad facing tough family truths, was asked about a second season. He smiled and said to Deadline, “I cannot answer that question because it’s somewhere in the deep recesses of my mind and Jack’s mind, and we’ll pull it out in three or four years, so stay tuned.” That line has everyone buzzing. Behind the scenes, producers from Plan B have met with director Philip Barantini and writer Jack Thorne. They want to expand the story without repeating old ground. One producer talked about widening the focus while keeping the heart of the show alive.
