Save the date. September 16, 2022, is the day Fate: The Winx Saga season 2 arrives on Netflix! Seven new episodes will bring many surprises and new faces to Alfea. The behind-the-scenes video makes it clear. But there are some more surprises. Ready?
Here we go!
The passage of time brought new faces, new monsters… the passage of time brought much more and better things. And we see Musa and Riven training together! Don’t get me wrong, I’m still shipping Terra with Riven and I want them to somehow get together this season 2 (after a sincere regret on Riven’s part) and this scene goes against my particular agenda but I know the fandom will be happy because this is what you have always wanted and I’m happy for you.
Apart from the new image and the presentation video, we have the official synopsis of season 2 ready!
School’s back in session under the militant authority of Alfea’s former Headmistress Rosalind. With the Burned Ones gone, Dowling “disappeared” and Silva imprisoned for treason, the Alfea of last year has grown up with new magic, new romances, and new faces. But when fairies start to go missing in the night, Bloom and her Suitemates discover a dangerous threat lurking in the shadows. One they’ll have to stop before it wreaks havoc on the entire Otherworld.
Rosalind reigns over Alfea with an iron fist but, soon, a new threat will arise and the Winx will have to put an end to it…hopefully with some unexpected old allies.
The new season sees the introduction of earth fairy Flora, played by Paulina Chávez. Paulina stars alongside returning cast Abigail Cowen as Bloom, Hannah van der Westhuysen as Stella, Precious Mustapha as Aisha, Eliot Salt as Terra, and Elisha Applebaum as Musa. Other stars include Danny Griffin, Sadie Soverall, Freddie Thorp, Theo Graham, Jacob Dudman, Brandon Grace, Robert James-Collier, Ken Duken, and Éanna Hardwicke.
Oscar-nominated Miranda Richardson (Good Omens) will join the cast to take on the role of Headmistress Rosalind, alongside Daniel Betts who will play Professor Harvey.
Miranda’s signing makes us happy and we welcome her to the Winx family but we don’t quite understand what happened to Lesley Sharp…she was the perfect Rosalind and it’s going to be strange adjusting to the new fit in this character.
Brian Young (The Vampire Diaries) serves as Showrunner and Executive Producer. The series is also Executive Produced by Judy Counihan and Kris Thykier from Archery Pictures (Riviera, The State) plus Joanne Lee and Cristiana Buzzelli from Rainbow.
Fate: The Winx Saga season 2 is coming to Netflix on September 16.
