According to Variety, the president of entertainment for the FOX Broadcasting Company, David Madden, shared his sentiments about the series. He stated, "'Wayward Pines' was a huge hit for us this past summer. We were absolutely blown away by the mysterious and surprising world that Night and his team created, and the twisting-and-turning storytelling that drew viewers in from day one. Season Two is going to take the suspense, the vision of the future and the haunting character drama to whole new levels, and we can't wait for our fans to continue that ride next year."
It was reported that the upcoming season of "Wayward Pines" will continue from where the finale of season 1 ended. It will feature a newcomer dealing with the chaos and rebellion in Wayward Pines. With that, fans are also wondering just how the story will continue since one of the main characters of the series, Ethan, had died at the end of the previous season.
"Wayward Pines" season 2 is expected to release mid-2016.
