Fans of Fired on Mars are curious about whether Season 2 is on the horizon following the conclusion of its debut season. This animated sci-fi comedy by HBO Max follows the lonely adventures of Jeff Cooper on the planet Mars. It premiered on April 20, 2023, and ended after eight episodes.
Here’s everything we know about whether HBO Max has pulled the plug on Fired on Mars or if it will be renewed.
What’s the status of Fired on Mars Season 2?
HBO has not yet announced whether Fired on Mars will return for Season 2.
The debut season of the adult animated sci-fi show released its final episode on May 11, 2023. Since then, HBO has remained silent regarding the future of the series. The production house has yet to confirm whether the show will make a comeback or if it’s the end of the line. Since it has been two years since Season 1 was completed, the possibility of a renewal does look bleak. The only ray of hope is that HBO has not canceled it altogether, either.
Whether or not HBO Max will drop an update on the series soon remains a mystery. Fans must wait longer for the creators to announce whether Fired on Mars will return for season 2.
Fired on Mars was created by Nate Sherman and Nick Vokey, and it is based on a short story they released in 2016. The show centers on Jeff Cooper, a graphic designer who stays and works on Mars at its only colony. Thus, when his boss unceremoniously terminates him one day, Cooper is stranded on the Red Planet with no way to return home to Earth. The show follows Jeff, who navigates his daily life on Mars as he tries to escape where he worked. His long-distance relationship with Hannah, who’s back on Earth, makes things even more harrowing.
Fired on Mars features Luke Wilson as the voice of the protagonist, Jeff. Other cast members include Tim Heidecker, Sean Wing, Pete Davidson, Chase Bernstein, and more.
