Excitement is brewing for what ‘Mr. and Mrs. Smith’ has in store for us in Season 2, but there’s a notable shake-up on the horizon: whispers are circulating that Season 1 favourites Donald Glover and Maya Erskine might not be returning for the next installment. Glover, still credited as an executive producer and co-creator of the show, could find himself unable to join due to his upcoming global tour as Childish Gambino from August to February 2025.
To maintain consistency in the show’s creative direction, Season 1 showrunner Francesca Sloane is making a comeback for Season 2. Despite the uncertainty surrounding their involvement, Amazon has yet to officially comment on Glover and Erskine’s fate for Season 2. Representatives for the actors have also remained tight-lipped regarding their potential participation in the upcoming season.
