The mystery of who survived the gunfight in
Mr. & Mrs. Smith Season 1 finale cliffhanger will remain unsolved for the time being. Production on Season 2 of
Prime Video‘s popular series has been pushed, with its future uncertain, sources tell Deadline. The delay is due to cast issues, I hear.
Anora‘s Mark Eydelshteyn and
Yellowjackets‘ Sophie Thatcher were cast as Season 2’s eponymous Mr. and Mrs. Smith in December and February, respectively.
A flurry of activity followed, with Lily-Rose Depp, Francesca Scorsese, Levon Hawke, Wagner Moura, Gael Garcia Bernal all rumored for guest star/recurring roles over the summer.
But neither was ever confirmed as sources say deals have not closed, and the new season, initially eying a fall production start, is now on indefinite hold, I hear. New Regency, which co-produces the series with Amazon MGM Studios, hopes to start pre-production at the end of the year for a 2026 shoot, sources said.
