'Summertime' Season 2: Release date, plot, cast and all you need to know about Netflix's Italian romance
Netflix just announced the revival of its Italian romantic series 'Summertime'. Following the success of the first season, which released on Netflix roughly a month ago on April 29, 2020, Netflix announced a second season of the Italian romantic dramedy. Set during the summer on the Adriatic Coast, the story follows a group of teenagers who find love, life and everything in between. The question is if they can hold on to the things they get.
Here is everything you need to know about the second season of the series.
Release date
The official release date for Season 2 of 'Summertime' is not yet announced. MEA WorldWide (MEAWW) will update this article when it is announced.
Plot
Details about the plot of Season 2 are not yet made public, except this: "The second season of Summertime will take the audience back to the summer atmosphere on Italy's Adriatic Coast". In the first season, we followed Summer as she embarked on a coming-of-age journey. Along the way, she found her dreams, aspirations and hope. Summer is not the only one who is on the quest for answers. Along with Summer, her friends are also on a similar journey. In Season 1, they might have found some of these answers, but there is more to come and it might not come easy.
Cast
Summer (Coco Rebecca Edogamhe)
Towards the end of Season 1, Summer, a headstrong, committed, dedicated and intelligent young girl, had learned a lot of lessons not only about life but also about herself. In Season 2, as she embarks on yet another journey, we expect her to be her collected self and make the most of all the difficulties that life sends her way. This was Edogamhe's debut role.
Ale (Ludovico Tersigni)
At the end of the previous season, Ale had taken up the offer to work in Spain. Before he left, he and summer had discussed that they would do a long-distance relationship. In Season 2 we should expect to see more of that relationship. The Italian actor is best known for his performances in 'Oranges & Hammer', 'Slam — All for a Girl', 'Anything Can Happen' and 'Beyond the Threshold'.
Dario (Andrea Lattanzi)
After spending an entire season moping around, Dario finally expressed his feelings to Sofia. But then as it did not go as expected, he eventually let's go. But Dario is not the loser in the story. If anything, he has discovered a very strong friendship with Sofia. The actor is known for his roles in 'Ordinary Justice', 'Manuel' and 'On My Skin: The Last Seven Days of Stefano Cucchi'.
Sofia (Amanda Campana)
Our most favorite character from the series, Sofia, finally stopped looking for validation in flings. In Season 2, we will expect her to embark on her first real relationship. The actress is known for her work on 'Bastardi a Mano Armata' and 'Thegiornalisti: Riccione'.
Along with them returns Edo (Giovanni Maini), who in Season 1, found out that Summer did not like him in the same way that he liked her. And after one fling, it looks like he might have a better grasp of his feelings than earlier. The actor is known for Giuseppe Verdi's 'Rigoletto Story' and 'Lucia di Lammermoor'. Blue (Alicia Ann Edogamhe), Summer's sister, is also set to reprise her role. By the end of the previous season, blue had some important lessons about love and life to learn. After the accident that almost took her life, she is now looking to reconstruct herself. But most importantly, it looks like she is going to reconstruct her expectations of love and life. Thony will be back as Summer and Blue's mom Isabella and Mario Sgueglia as Ale's dad Maurizio.
