More than two years after its first season aired on Netflix, ‘Black Summer’ returns to the streaming platform with a Season 2. The first season received positive reviews from the critics and audience.

The thrilling Season 1 ended with Rose (Jaime King) entering the empty stadium and it was evident that any army presence had either left or were currently undead. After seeing an empty stadium, any hopes of Rose’s daughter being alive were dashed. However, they see a man emerging from the stands with a gun in his hand, but he lowers his weapon and makes Rose know that he is not a threat. A few moments later, we see a young girl emerging and it is revealed to be Rose’s daughter Anna (Zoe Marlett).
