The Netflix comedy Running Point had everyone hooked with its mix of basketball, family chaos, and sharp humor. Kate Hudson shines as Isla Gordon, leading the Los Angeles Waves through a whirlwind of drama. Since the first season dropped on February 27, 2025, fans can’t stop talking about what’s next. So, is Running Point Season 2 hitting screens in September 2025? Here’s everything known about the show’s return.

When’s the Release Date for Running Point Season 2?

No official word from Netflix confirms a release date yet, but here’s the deal. Filming for Season 2 started on August 11, 2025, in Los Angeles and should wrap by November 20, 2025. With about three months of shooting, plus time for editing and promo, September 2025 feels way too soon. Word on the street points to April 2026 as a likely premiere, giving the team room to polish the show and aim for Emmy season, which wraps up in May 2026. Delays could happen, but don’t hold your breath for next month.

Who’s Back for Season 2?

Expect the Gordon family and their Waves crew to return in full force. The lineup includes:

• Kate Hudson as Isla Gordon, the ex-party girl now running the team.

• Brenda Song as Ali Lee, Isla’s quick-witted bestie and chief of staff.

• Drew Tarver as Sandy Gordon, the quirky half-brother handling finances.

• Scott MacArthur as Ness Gordon, the older sibling and team GM.

• Justin Theroux as Cam Gordon, stirring up trouble with Isla.

• Fabrizio Guido as Jackie Moreno, the newfound brother on the team.

• TOBY SANDEMAN as Marcus Winfield, a star player with flair.

• Chet Hanks as Travis Bugg, the wild-card rapper-turned-athlete.

Jay Ellis as Coach Jay Brown and Max Greenfield as Lev, Isla’s fiancé, should also be back, especially with that love triangle left hanging. No new faces have been announced, but surprises could be in store.

What’s the Plot for Season 2?

Season 1 left fans on edge (spoiler Alert if you’re not caught up). The Waves reached the playoffs but fell in Game 7, setting up a redemption arc. Isla held her own as president, but Cam’s move to take her office chair screams power struggle. And that kiss between Isla and Coach Jay? It’s trouble for her engagement to Lev. Season 2 will likely dig into the Gordon family’s rivalries, with Isla and Cam clashing over control. Drawing from Jeanie Buss’ Lakers legacy, the show will mix real sports vibes with comedy, exploring gender roles and personal wins. No full plot details yet, but expect more sibling fights, team chaos, and hoops action.
