North Of North Renewed For Season 2 At Netflix

Netflix is heading up north, and staying there: The streamer has renewed the Arctic comedy North of North, starring Anna Lambe, for a second season, TVLine has learned.

North of North (a co-production with Canada's CBC) stars Lambe as Siaja, a young Inuk mother living in the fictional town of Ice Cove who "wants to build a new future for herself after a spontaneous — and extremely public — exit from her marriage," per the official synopsis. "But it won't be easy in a small Arctic town where everybody knows your business." It debuted on Netflix earlier this month with an eight-episode freshman season.

The supporting cast includes Maika Harper as Siaja's mom Neevee, Jay Ryan as her estranged dad Alistair, Kelly William as her ex-husband Ting, Braeden Clarke as new love interest Kuuk, Keira Belle Cooper as Siaja's daughter Bun and Mary Lynn Rajskub as town manager Helen. Stacey Aglok MacDonald and Alethea Arnaquq-Baril co-created the series and serve as executive producers.

"When I got the call from Alethea, Stacey and [EP] Miranda [de Pencier] about North of North being renewed for a second season, my heart exploded in the best way possible!" Lambe said in a statement. "I'm so excited and overwhelmed with joy, I can't wait to head back to Ice Cove!"
