Maid season 2 : After going through the ringer, and later some of the Netflix’s Maid Alex managed to breathe easily, for a brief moment after she stepped through Sean’s trailer one last time, and left the to go home with daughter Maddy.
When the duo sat down under the massive M, which dominated their new venue for stamping We couldn’t help but exhale a huge exhale of relief. For the first time in a long while their future together was looking bright, up to the next bump on the road. But what exactly will the “bump” entail? Is there a plan to revisit the pair to make another round?
Maid season 2 release date: When will it air?
Netflix hasn’t revealed whether Maid will be back for a second outing. The series, based on Stephanie Land’s memoir, is currently marketed as a limited series and it feels unlikely that will change given how it wrapped up (more on that later). But we wouldn’t bet our bottom dollar on this being the end.
Maid season 2 cast: Who’s in it?
If more episodes are on their way, Alex (Margaret Qualley) and Maddy (Rylea Nevaeh Whittet) will obviously be back, and we’d expect Sean (Nick Robinson) and Alex’s mum Paula (Andie MacDowell) to feature. Plus, Regina (Anika Noni Rose) and Alex’s dad Hank (Billy Burke) are also possibilities.
Andie MacDowell recently talked to Collider about her role as Alex’s mum, who is described as undiagnosed bipolar, and what it was like playing alongside her real-life daughter Margaret Qualley, who suggested her for the role.
“She [Margaret] knew that I’ve had personal experiences with mental illness because my mother was diagnosed with schizophrenia right after I was born and had shock treatments, and then came home to be really left alone. They didn’t have the support system back then. It was an embarrassment to have any kind of mental illness. So I grew up in this really crazy environment, and Margaret knew that.”
“I think we worked really well together. When I saw it, I was blown away by her performance,” MacDowell said of her daughter.
She also chatted about her hopes for where Paula, Alex and Maddy’s stories would lead if Maid gets a second season, and whether Paula would visit her daughter and grandaughter.
“We [MacDowell and Qualley] talked about that. She was like, ‘What do you think?’ I was like, ‘No, she’s gonna come. She’s not gonna stay but she’s gonna come. She’ll show up in a Winnebago. She’s gotta see her granddaughter. She’s gonna come. She won’t stay but she’ll come.”
