Ludwig Season 2 Details: Cast, Storyline, and Current Updates

Ludwig, the critically acclaimed British drama series, is set to return for a second season in 2026. Filming for Ludwig season 2 commenced in September 2025 around the picturesque city of Cambridge.

The series will once again star David Mitchell as John "Ludwig" Taylor, along with a returning cast that includes Dipo Ola, Dylan Hughes, Dorothy Atkinson, Ralph Ineson, and Karl Pilkington. New additions to the cast include Mark Bonnar, Sian Clifford, Ben Ashenden, and Rumi Sutton.

In the first season, John had to reveal his true identity to some of his team, as he was not James, but John. The season ended with John helping Lucy escape a wrongful murder charge. It is heavily hinted that John is in love with Lucy, his sister-in-law.

The plot for Ludwig season 2 revolves around John's new role as a police consultant for the Cambridge Police Authority. He accepts a job offer in this capacity and begins investigating files written by blogger Sinclair, uncovering potential involvement of Chief Constable Ziegler in Sinclair's death.

However, John is forbidden from using police resources to look for his missing twin brother or uncover what he was investigating. The new season promises to be a thrilling ride as John navigates through this complex web of secrets and uncovers the truth.

As of now, there is no official trailer released for Ludwig season 2. The search results do not provide information about the name of the new journalist appearing in the series.

Ludwig season 1 received positive reviews, and fans are eagerly awaiting the return of this gripping drama. The series is again written by Mark Brotherhood and produced by Big Talk Studios and That Mitchell And Webb Company.

Production for Ludwig season 2 is currently underway, with anticipation building for its 2026 release date. The filming around Cambridge is expected to bring more excitement and intrigue to the series, as the city's historic backdrop adds an extra layer of mystery to the storyline.
