After a successful debut, Netflix swiftly renewed the romantic-sports drama Finding Her Edge. As fans wait with bated breath to learn more, we have a massive update: Season 2 is officially in production with a newly expanded cast! Filming kicked off in August 2026, and we expect the series to return to our screens sometime in the second half of 2027.
Finding Her Edge is a romantic drama series based on Jennifer Iacopelli’s bestselling novel of the same name, which became a viral sensation on TikTok’s thriving BookTok community before being developed for television by Jeff Norton and Shelley Scarrow.
While Season 1 saw Adriana (Madelyn Keys) juggling the weight of her family’s legacy with her own complicated love life, the stakes in Season 2 are getting even higher. This time, the Russo sisters trade their family rink for the cutthroat pressure of Voltage Academy, where every skate could make or break their National Team ambitions. As the pressure mounts on and off the ice, Adriana finds herself increasingly torn between her loyal boyfriend, Freddie (Olly Atkins), and Brayden (Cale Ambrozic), the former skating partner she never truly left behind.
“The world fell in love with our figure skaters in Season 1, and it’s a privilege to be able to continue their character arcs as they swap Russo Rink for Voltage Skating Academy with new loves, new rivalries, and new competitions,” says showrunner and executive producer Jeff Norton. “Get ready for a seriously swoon-worthy, soapy romantic rollercoaster as Adriana Russo navigates life after winning Worlds.”

Post-Production
Filming is officially underway! According to Production Weekly (issue 1507), the shooting schedule was moved up from a late-September start. Filming officially began on August 24, 2026, and is expected to conclude by December 14, 2026.
Production is currently taking place on location in Southern Ontario, Canada, specifically across Barrie and Orillia.
What does the production mean for the Netflix release date?
With filming wrapping up in December 2026, we can firmly rule out an early 2027 return.
If we use the 11 months and 12 days between the start of filming and the release of the first season as a benchmark, we can make an educated guess about when the second season will drop. With filming having started in late August 2026, Finding Her Edge season 2 could be released sometime between June and August 2027.
