When is the Official Release Date of Gentleman Jack Season 2?
Although we are sure that the series will be out sometime in spring of 2022, BBC has not yet confirmed when Gentleman Jack Season 2’s release date is.
But since it will be out by spring then, it isn’t too long to wait for fans in the UK to see Gentleman Jack Season 2 Episode 1. However, no details have come out about when it is going to be shown in America on HBO though.
Moreover, Rundle, one of the cast, has shared a series of pictures on her social media account where she and her co-star Jones are sipping glasses of champagne behind the scenes as they finished filming on Gentleman Jack Season 2 2021.
She captioned in the photo, “Corrr it’s been a long time coming but after a year – a whole YEAR – we have FINALLY wrapped on Gentleman Jack s2!” Now we’re excited as ever to see the Gentleman Jack Season 2!

The story is set in the 1830s where Anne lives an unconventional life as a businesswoman and flits from one romantic encounter with one woman to another. Not until she met Ann Walker in the first season who changed everything.

Wainwright however told an interview, “I haven’t made too many choices yet, but I don’t really want to lose Aunt Anne.” She added, “The dynamic around the dining table – I think that seems to work very well. There’s a nice family comedy in there with those different generations… I don’t lose characters unless I have to.”
So, we’ll have to wait and see until it gets released.
