With the recent release of The Artful Dodger’s sophomore season, fans are wondering if the show will return with Season 3 as well. This popular heist drama follows the titular Dickensian character and his journey back into a life of crime. So, has Disney+ renewed it for another installment?
Here’s everything we know so far.
Has Disney+ canceled The Artful Dodger or renewed it for Season 3?
Disney+ has yet to renew The Artful Dodger for Season 3. However, there has been no report of a cancellation either.
The second season of The Artful Dodger is scheduled to premiere on February 10, 2026. So, the show’s renewal status might depend on the performance of its sophomore season. However, since its debut season earned widespread critical acclaim, holding a stellar rating of 8/10 on IMDb and 92% on Rotten Tomatoes, expectations are high for its new installment.
As of now, Disney has not made any announcement confirming whether the show will return for a third season. Given its previous season’s success, fans are hopeful that the story of The Artful Dodger is far from complete. For now, the wait remains for an official update regarding its renewal status.
The Artful Dodger is a historical heist drama series, based on the titular character in Charles Dickens’ Oliver Twist. Created by James McNamara, David Maher, and David Taylor, the show serves as a sequel to the classic novel.
Set in 1850s Australia, the story follows Jack Dawkins, a former Royal Navy surgeon who builds a reputation as a skilled and respected young doctor. However, when his old acquaintance Fagin unexpectedly reappears, he drags Jack back into the shadows of his past.
The series stars Thomas Brodie-Sangster as Jack Dawkins, aka the Artful Dodger. Other notable cast members of the show include David Thewlis as Norbert Fagin, Maia Mitchell as Lady Belle Fox, Damon Herriman as Captain Lucien Gaines, and more.
All eight episodes of The Artful Dodger Season 2 are available to stream on Disney+.
