Hulu and mystery thrillers are a match made in heaven. In recent years, Hulu has become home to many trending suspense thrillers. Candy, Under The Banner Of Heaven and Riverdale to name a few. Saint X is a welcome addition to this list. Featuring the Fear the Walking Dead alum Alicia Debnam Carey as Emily Thomas, Saint X spans multiple decades into this series and leaves the audience wanting more and more. Created by Leila Gerstein, Saint X explores a murder mystery in the classic whodunnit approach.
The suspense element of the show is probably the reason why I–and most of you–picked it up. Now, we are all left to wonder whether Saint X Season 2 is approved by Hulu or Emily is waving us goodbye. So, why not know more about the confirmation status and possible release date for Saint X Season 2?
Saint X Season 2 Release Date
When the Thomas family decides to vacation on the Caribbean island, little did they know what kind of horrors lay ahead of them. Based on the titular bestselling novel by Alexis Schaitkin, Saint X is a weekly releasing thriller premiering on Hulu. It debuted on April 26, 2023, with three episodes that set the premise of the series and hint at the disappearance of Alison Thomas.
Since Saint X’s storyline is heavily dependent on Alexis’ novel, the future of the series seems uncertain. Schaitkin hasn’t delved further into the Thomas family dynamics after publishing the titular novel. This simply affirms the fact that Saint X Season 2 has no source material and is considered to be a miniseries–although not officially confirmed.
While it is true that Saint X Season 2 doesn’t have any source material, the speculations suggest that Hulu is gearing up to start production for the sequel. However, there is no confirmation from the streaming host or Gerstein regarding the same. Now, it depends on the cliffhangers Saint X Season 1 will leave us with on its 8th episode scheduled to release by the end of May 2023.

Saint X Season 2 Story: What Will The Sequel Be About?
Probably the most engrossing topic for today’s discussion, isn’t it? If Saint X Season 1 has adapted Alexis’ novel and has no source material left, what would Saint X Season 2 entail?
The debut season of this mystery thriller follows Emily Thomas (Alycia Debnam-Carey) and her journey to unearth the truth about her sister’s death. 2 decades back, when the Thomas family was enjoying the scenic beauty of the Caribbean, their elder daughter, Alison, was brutally assaulted and murdered. The blame fell onto Gogo and Edwin, who were close to Alison at that time. Now, when Emily and Gogo come across each other, every belief of Emily is challenged thoroughly.
Since Season 1 is still ongoing, it is difficult to predict what would the storyline of Season 2 will be. It will probably revolve around Emily’s struggle to solve Alison’s death mystery. It is also possible that the makers will introduce another mystery or make Clive or Edwin the main characters this time. Gerstein and her team will definitely have to come up with an equally engrossing thriller for Saint X Season 2.
Saint X Season 2 Cast And Characters Guide
The series is led by Alycia Debnam-Carey who takes on the role of Emily Thomas. In a nutshell, Emily is determined to discover the truth behind the death of Alison (West Duchovny) and is drastically impacted by it. She is an environmental documentary editor by profession.
Clive Gogo Richardson (Josh Bonzie) and Edwin (Jayden Elijah) are two hotel employees on the Caribbean island. They get too close to Alison and later have to endure the burn of it when they are accused of Alison’s death and assault. Since Saint X follows a time-relapsing format, we can expect all these cast members to return and reprise their roles.
