Streaming platforms are playing games again, keeping viewers in the dark about one of the most twisted thrillers of the past year.

Netflix has a new Mexican crime drama about to hit, and it is a gnarly one. The Dead Girls drops us into 1960s Mexico, where the Baladro sisters build a brothel empire and then spiral into serial-killer territory. Naturally, the big questions right now are: is Netflix splitting the season into parts, and is there any shot at Season 2?

So, is The Dead Girls getting a Season 2?

Short answer: not yet. Netflix has neither canceled nor renewed The Dead Girls for a second season. The show has been billed as a limited series, which usually means one and done. That said, Netflix loves to keep doors cracked open if something breaks big. Translation: if the ratings and reviews pop after premiere, a follow-up is not impossible. For now, we wait for the streamer (or the creative team) to make it official either way.

Release plan: no split, all at once

Season 1 premieres on September 10, 2025, and it is a six-episode run. All six land at the same time. I get why folks were wondering about extra episodes or a staggered rollout: Netflix has been slicing seasons into multiple parts across a bunch of shows lately — Bridgerton, Cobra Kai, Emily in Paris, Beauty in Black, Outer Banks — and Stranger Things is finishing its last season in three parts starting November 26, 2025. The Dead Girls is not playing that game. It is an old-school, one-night drop.

Who is in it

The cast includes Arcelia Ramirez, Paulina Gaitan, Joaquin Cosio, and Alfonso Herrera, among others.
