Release date & Where to Watch
Netflix has yet to announce a release date for Beef season two. However, with the story and cast already in place, a premiere in late 2025 or early 2026 seems plausible. Season two of Beef will feature eight 30-minute episodes.
What is Beef Season 2 About?
Season two of Beef takes the anthology route, shifting to a new story centered around a young couple who witness a shocking altercation between their boss and his wife. This incident sets off a chain of manipulation and coercion within the elite world of a country club, led by its Korean billionaire owner.
As tensions rise, the couple uses their knowledge of the fight as leverage, climbing the social ladder in increasingly bold and morally questionable ways. Spaeny and Melton are set to portray the young couple, while Isaac and Mulligan will take on the roles of the boss and his wife. The country club setting promises a fresh yet equally petty and dramatic backdrop compared to season one’s road-rage feud.
While the show’s creator, Lee Sung Jin, hasn’t confirmed if this season is inspired by true events, it’s clear that anger will remain at the heart of the narrative. With new characters and conflicts, season two aims to take the drama to absurd heights, maintaining the show's signature exploration of human flaws and feuds.

- Oscar Isaac (Dune, Ex Machina, Inside Llewyn Davis)
- Carey Mulligan (Promising Young Woman, Maestro)
- Charles Melton (May December, Warfare)
- Cailee Spaeny (Priscilla, Civil War, Alien: Romulus)
- Youn Yuh-jung (Minari, Pachinko)
Will There be Beef Season 3?
Lee Sung Jin has hinted at the possibility of more seasons beyond the upcoming one. Speaking to Rolling Stone, he revealed that while Danny and Amy’s storyline feels complete, he has plenty of ideas to keep the series alive. “I have one really big general idea that I can’t really say yet, but I have three seasons mapped out in my head currently,” he shared.
On the Emmys red carpet in January 2024, Lee told Variety that the show’s future could take various forms. “It could stay limited—it was a very close-ended story for sure. But if Netflix wanted to continue, it could also be an anthology. It could be many things. It’s up to the great algorithm. We’re all waiting to hear.”
