Nicola Walker’s ‘Phenomenal’ Disney+ Drama Is Coming Back — And Season 2 Promises Even More Betrayal
Fans of Nicola Walker have something to celebrate: her dark comedy-drama Alice and Steve has officially been renewed for a second season on Disney+.
The series follows Alice and Steve, longtime best friends whose 30-year friendship is thrown into chaos when Steve begins dating Alice’s 26-year-old daughter, Izzy. What starts as an uncomfortable family situation quickly turns into a bitter feud, culminating in a major cliffhanger at the end of Season 1.

Season 2 is being kept tightly under wraps, but creator Sophie Goodhart has teased that “no one will be prepared for what happens next.” Disney+ EMEA executive Lee Mason has also promised more laughs, betrayal and bad decisions, suggesting the complicated relationships are about to become even messier.

Walker is expected to return as Alice alongside Jemaine Clement as Steve, with Joel Fry and Yali Topol Margalith also expected to reprise their roles.
The first season divided critics, with some finding its central premise uncomfortable, while viewers praised it as a “phenomenal” and brilliantly dark comedy. Season 1 is currently available on Disney+, but Season 2 does not yet have a confirmed release date.
