Who all are there in Tiger King 2?

The Netflix Original Tiger King Season 2 will premiere on November 17th, 2021 exclusively on Netflix. The major characters will return from the first season. The trailer of the second season shows us the cast which includes Tim Stark, Jeff Lowe, Allen Glover, and James Garretson. Joe Exotic will also be there because Tiger King is impossible without him. However, he will show only a brief glimpse as he is still serving prison. The trailer also highlights a lot of illegal activities which does not come as a surprise for the fans of Tiger King.

Intriguingly, Carole Baskin, another important character of Tiger Kin is missing from the trailer. Baskin was not in support of the first season of Tiger King. But, the show is still on. She has been extremely outspoken about her disapproval.

Producers say there is more to Tiger King

The official synopsis of Tiger King Season 2 reads, “With Joe Exotic behind bars and Carole Baskin closing in on ownership of his disreputable zoo, the Emmy-nominated saga continues its twisted course with Tiger King 2 as newfound revelations emerge on the motivations, backstories, and secrets of America’s most notorious big cat owners. Old enemies and frenemies, including Jeff Lowe, Tim Stark, Allen Glover, and James Garretson, return for another season of murder, mayhem, and madness”

Many of us thought Joe Exotic behind the bars is the end of the story. But, the producers of the show explained to Entertainment Weekly that there’s more to it. She said, “…we have a crazy amount of footage, and it’s a story that’s still unfolding… it’ll be just as dramatic and just as colorful as what has unfolded [in] these past few years.”

Chaikin and Goode claimed that there is still a “crazy amount of footage” and the documentary subjects are obsessed with filming themselves. Who knows we even get to see a third season of Tiger King!
