Newcomer Michael Iskander will return as the eventual king David for season 2, with much of the supporting cast also reprising their roles, including Daredevil: Born Again alum Ayelet Zurer and Avatar‘s Stephen Lang.
Creator and co-writer Jon Erwin has not been shy about sharing updates on the production, so read on for some of the key details announced so far – and an estimation of when House of David season 2 could land on Prime Video.
House of David season 2 release date speculation
Good news! House of David has been renewed for a second season on Prime Video – and it may be coming sooner than you think.
After its renewal was formally announced in mid-March, just prior to episode 6 dropping on the streaming platform, showrunner Jon Erwin revealed that cameras were already rolling on the next set of episodes.
He and co-writer Jon Gunn said: “We are humbled by the extraordinary reaction this show has earned from the faith audience worldwide.
“Thanks to them and our partners at Prime Video and Amazon MGM Studios, Wonder Project will bring more of the Bible and this epic saga to a global audience. Congratulations to our incredible cast and crew.”
On Instagram, Erwin shared a short video celebrating the news.
He proceeded to announce that filming on season 2 was already underway, with a major new set being constructed to bring the next chapter of the story to life.
Given that production is moving forward at pace, we’d expect the next season of House of David to be released within the next year, with a possible release date being spring 2026. That’s just speculation for now though.
We’ll update this page with more information on the House of David release window as it comes in.
