Tiger King season 2 will be coming to screens sooner than you think as Netflix has confirmed the next instalment of the weird and wonderful documentary.
Many viewers undoubtedly assumed the Tiger King chapter was closed as season 1 ended with Joe Exotic’s arrest and imprisonment for trying to hire someone to kill animal rights activist – and his longtime rival – Carole Baskin.
Well, Netflix has delivered an early Christmas present as they’ve announced season 2 will drop before the end of 2021.
It’s exciting news for fans of the first docu-series but, they’ll be sorely disappointed if they hope to see Carole back on screens.
Earlier this year, it was revealed that Carole and new husband Howard Baskin had refused to have any involvement with the upcoming episodes, claiming to have been betrayed by directors Eric Goode and Rebecca Chaiklin.
Carole said in February: ‘It was just a few weeks ago that Chaiklin had reached out asking if we could clear the air.
I have been speaking about how we had been so misled and then it turned out to be the freak show that they produced.'
Netflix is yet to announce an exact premiere date for Tiger King season 2.

A new survey of people aged 18-30 in the UK from diverse backgrounds has revealed that the majority are uncomfortable with the term ‘Black, Asian and minority ethnic’ (BAME).
Collective terms for diverse groups have been widely regarded as inadequate for a while now, and a new survey has confirmed that young people are officially done with the term ‘BAME’.
The survey conducted by charity Blueprint for All found that 98% feel it is important for a shared language that unifies people from diverse heritages, however there is no shared word or expression that participants feel represents them all.
No Time To Die director Cary Fukunaga has claimed Sean Connery’s James Bond was ‘basically’ a rapist as he reflected on historic casual misogyny of the character.
The filmmaker insisted the spy franchise has moved on drastically with its attitude towards women since the late Scottish actor portrayed the first incantation of the suave spy, with a main hurdle being how it navigates the post-#MeToo era.
He told The Hollywood Reporter: ‘Is it Thunderball or Goldfinger where, like, basically Sean Connery’s character rapes a woman?
‘She’s like, “No, no, no,” and he’s like, “Yes, yes, yes.” That wouldn’t fly today.’
We all know sustainability is an area that the fashion industry is falling short on.
But last night at London Fashion Week, one designer put recycling and reuse in the spotlight – demonstrating just how powerful second-hand clothing can be.

The collaboration with Oxfam comes during the charity’s Second Hand September campaign – which encourages people to buy pre-loved items and donate unwanted clothes.
