Created by J. T. Rogers and based on the 2009 namesake memoir by Jake Adelstein, Tokyo Vice is a crime-drama series that revolves around Jake, an American reporter working for a Japanese-language newspaper in Tokyo, who grows close to both the yakuza and Japanese police, especially a veteran vice detective. Season 1 premiered on April 7, 2022, and received mostly positive responses. If you are wondering when Season 2 is coming out, this is what we have discovered.
Here’s all the Tokyo Vice Season 2 release date information we know so far, and all the details on when it is coming out.
Is there a Tokyo Vice Season 2 release date?
The Tokyo Vice Season 2 release date is expected to arrive by February 2024.
In June 2022, Tokyo Vice was greenlit for the sophomore season. Production began in November 2022 in Tokyo and ended in August 2023. It was reported in November 2023 that the Tokyo Vice Season 2 would premiere in February 2024. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, series creator J. T. Rogers spoke about what the fans could expect in Season 2. “We had Max’s blessing to end Season 1 with an episode that was nothing but cliffhangers,” he said. “I was writing Season 2 while we were shooting Season 1, so it is the same story that we’re following. Everything that was left hanging at the end of Season 1 will be settled — if not immediately, then over the course of the season. Some right away, some later on.”
This date is an estimation based on the information we have at the time of this writing.
The cast of Tokyo Vice includes Ansel Elgort as Jake Adelstein, Ken Watanabe as Hiroto Katagiri, Rachel Keller as Samantha Porter, Hideaki Itō as Jin Miyamoto, Rinko Kikuchi as Emi Maruyama, Ella Rumpf as Polina, Tomohisa Yamashita as Akira, and more. Aoi Takeya and Takayuki Suzuki have joined the cast for the upcoming season.
Where is Tokyo Vice Season 2 coming out?
Tokyo Vice Season 2 is anticipated to come out on HBO Max in February 2024.
