Series 2 will begin filming later this year, again written by Dennis Kelly (Spooks).

Head of Drama Piers Wenger commented: “Thanks to Dennis Kelly’s uncompromising and brilliant writing and Marc Munden’s visionary direction, the first series of Utopia shocked and delighted critics and fans by turns. Following the success of the first run, we are thrilled to announce further adventures for Utopia‘s eclectic cast of characters even stranger, more imaginative and brilliantly intriguing than the first.”

Earlier this month star Nathan Stewart-Jarrett teased: “I think there is scope for a second series, but I also think that it is self-contained. It really does depend. Sometimes you think things could have carried on or things aren’t resolved, and people can get annoyed by that.”
